So you go outta town for a few days, you come back to this shit hole town to this.

If it was the Accord I wouldn't give a shit, but for the amount of energy that has gone into this car it pisses me off.

Junkyard run?

[SeanB]

CRX tail lights are impossible to find in a junk yard, they are about $100 for a pair, and bumper... well I've never seen one of those at a yard.

So I am rather pissed, guess I'll have to chat with Marteen once he's back in town... more body work... yay.

[johnnytavo]

That is pretty low, probably somebody from Jersey, but look on the bright side, it could have been worse

Morganhole.

Hit & Skip.

My guess would be a pickup...same thing happened to my Miata last year.

This really sucks. I know we were talking about leaving it at my place this winter, but we should have gotten out here sooner. I'll call dad and see if I can get you a little better deal on parts. We'll fix it here if you want. Or I can match the paint and paint it in Parkersburg and bring it up later.

EDIT: Talked to Dad, there are no aftermarket taillights or rear bumper for that car. That is really strange because there is usually aftermarket for everything we work on. I thought as popular as the CRX is, it would have something.

I'm not sure if 26 and 27 are the tails or not. They're cheap if that's them.

i have seen a few after market tail lights for the rex, they all look like crap though

[evilnissan]

Well I know who hit mine.

Karens twin sister decided to reverse with out looking, leaving my undentable car with a dent the size of my head.

Now the rear tire bumps into fender...

Now I got to figure out how to bumber-ectomy to see whats bent under the plastic.

[Nathan]

^^I can pop most of that out without tools. Let me know if you're in Morgantown sometime.

[Luke Zyla]

You should have seen what the creeps did to my sons Toyota Camry last year in Morganhole. Much, much worse. Wouldn't you like to catch some creeps doing that and remove their testicles with a set of vise grips?
Sorry about your car, Sean.

[Luke Zyla]

Sean,
Have you tried www.junkyarddog.com ?
I have had excellent success with them in the past with tail lights for my old Subaru and my son's Toyota.

I'm no fan of M-town (although it's a much nicer town now than it was "back in the day", when I decided to go to Huntington instead), but that sort of thing happens in Wal-Mart parking lots world wide every day. Still sucks, though.

Morgantown is good for getting vandalized. When I live in towers I came out to my driver's side mirror cut and dangling from my door.

I do believe that the worst thing that has ever happen to my car was just this past week. It was at a dealership being repaired - after being on the lot for 6 weeks (yes, you read that right - 6 weeks!) the night before I was going to pick the car up some asswholes decided to break in and steal stuff. They smashed my driver's side window, jimmy rigged my locks, stole my stereo and cut the stock wiring harness, stole my ashtray, ruined my holder for my XM player (luckily the player was with me), stole my cell charger, and took my jumper cables, but left the bag and box that they were in. Oh, they also stole the fuse that runs the headlights - found that out the hard way. People like that suck.

I completely feel for you.

[Brucey]

Jeez.

I really appreciate my garage now.

Ebay search. I dunno what year yours is Sean, but the looked similar. Maybe, just maybe one will fit.
