Here is some updated pis of the whip.

Taking suggestions on what I should do next. If you give a suggestion... Please post a link or a picture of what your talking about.
Here are some ideas I had.
Carbon Fiber sunroof panel. ( the sunroof is the only rust on the car)
Header. ( heard edlebrock makes a nice one for the B18. cant seem to find it )
Intake. (maybe carbon fiber? or match the finish on the header)
Wire Tuck.
Relocate Battery. (trunk vs toolbox..? was also considering making a holder in the spare tire mount)
Full size aluminum radiator ( maybe with stainless lines. I love that look with anodized fittings )
Power Window Kit... ( I have a set of clean JDM door panels) {Need to do a pillar mount for seat belt} <--****!
Eventually, The car will get new paint. This year she is just getting detailed.
I was thinking about hitting up the junkyard for some OEM chassis parts that I could snag up and powdercoat.
***Please be gentle***

seats are from a 2006 Civic Si. you can take a look at my other post to see how I installed them.

When I read that I turned the sound UP! I absolutely LOVE an obnoxiously LOUD "sleeper". Your CRX is an awesome example of class and originality. I dig it! Make it louder!

Get the sunroof panel I say.

Header? There's only one source IMO.

Intake? Bisi makes those too. 8)

I relocated my battery (odyssey) to the passenger side rail. Fits snug and puts the weight in a useful spot. There's a pic or two of the mount in my build thread and I'm not the only one that's done it.

Personally I prefer a full sized radiator. Looks clean and stock.

Power windows? Meeeeehhhh, that's all you. Costly and ads weight. But a nice touch no less.

I have added a few updates. I just cleaned up my engine bay a little. got some parts powder coated.
valve cover (green)
hood latch hardware cleaned up ( sand blasted and polished)
sub frame ( green)
manifold cover repaired (welded) then powder coated gloss black

Got new hardware. Next, i will be upgrading the intake / battery relocated and perhaps a full size radiator.
