      Quite honestly you'd be better off finding a nicer shell they aren't all that expensize and that car looks like it needs a lot of body work keep it for a winter beater and start another project.

          build the hell out of it. There's nothing better then a car that you don't care about (appearance wise). It's so much more fun and it's a total sleeper.

              The best way to fix it would be to replace the hole rear quarter. Honda is out of right rears, but they still have some left side's in stock.

              I'm with Colin on this one, slap some bondo on that bitch and make it quick! A new bumper wouldn't hurt 😛 It's nice seeing other people with crx's around.

                Find a different shell.

                That one needs a bumper, new quarters, passenger door, possibly passenger fender and most like the same on the drivers side.

                  That would require quite a bit of metal work. I am in an autobody class in Minot and rust sucks to fix. A lot of the times we cut some out only to find more hiding. I would work on it yourself if you like doing bodywork and maybe keep an eye for a nicer shell at the same time.

                    Looks like you're in bout the same boat as I with with my CRX, cept mine has been fixed, but i'm sure they used a bit of bondo on my right rear as well. If I were u (what i'm doing with mine), build it up till u find a cleaner shell, then swap everything over to that one.

                      I'll say this. If it's that rusty in the quarters, then what does it look like underneath? There's no way the undercarriage has been spared. And there is no easy way to fix that. I'd take a hard look at the rear suspension, brake lines, and suspension mounting points. Anyone that knows Hondas knows that they are notorious for rusting there first. Just my .02.
