the front end that is.....
i picked up everything im going to need to do a 4th gen headlight/grille/front bumper swap today for 35.00 total.

i know some of you will prolly hate on me for this......but dong a front end swap is quite literally the only way for the hatch to have a face again, i got a new headlight bucket, and a new hood, and the car was on the rack for 3 1/2 hours, and all the gaps are completely out of whack.....so in going to update the face a little bit.

what are your guys' thoughts?

i MIGHT have one headlight in tomorrow

[Vanilla Sky]

well, i think ti's a good thing to at least attempt. i kinda wanted to do this with a 2nd gen teg front end on a 3gee hatch.

[3rdGenHatchBack]

i think it is going to lookpretty good, like i have always said...."i wish they would have made a 4th gen accord hatch"

so now im basically making my own.

i will call it a 3 1/2 gen....hehe

[gfrg88]

[frankie89]

that wasnt' funny when it was new, i wish people would stop it. makes you sound like someone that belongs in a beat up trailer in the woods, drinking crappy beer, and driving an old ford huntin' truck worth 50 times more than your trailer.

along the same lines i worked with a guy who bought me dads old camper trailor. It was like a 30 foot slide out camper pretty nice but never used. Turned out the guy moved up in the world. He used to live in a 18 foot trailor. I thought he bought it to camp in. Silly me

[Cheeseburger]

[Hash_man_Se_i]

[bobafett]

[3rdGenHatchBack]

the 4th gen is a tad bit wider, but it shouldnt be too big of a deal.

i couldnt get any work done on it today, too busy, but i will for sure on thursday
I'll be sure to keep you guys updated with plenty of pictures

[acco-R-d]

please do get us some pics soon.

[2drSE-i]

acco-r-d.....Dallas/Ft Worth airport sucks balls

anyway, i just felt that this needed to be said

if you have a home that is mobile, and 14 cars that arent, you might be a redneck


hehe my favorite one

anyway, a 4g conversion wud be cool! go nuts

[Vanilla Sky]

my home used to be, but is now a permanant structure as the county now recognises as a house. i do have 4 cars that won't start. the other two i have are wrecked. then we have a truck that's not insured.

this does kinda go way the hell off topic, but meh.

what did you break on the light that you want? i know that you made a marketplace want ad for a new driver's side light. why not use the broken one for fitting and then get a good one for the final product?

[halxi]

that will be friggin awesome... 4th gen front on a 3rd gen hatch... mmmm mmm teh sex lol

(side note: i myself have been having thoughts of going to a 4th gen, where b/h series would both be available to me :D ... well more so cutting/welding the whole front end (cab-forward) onto a 3g for some nice swaps... but its not practical so meh lol)

[spanky]

thats gonna look hot. what are you thinking of doing after your done with that.

[acco-R-d]

u get ne updates on it yet?

[Cheeseburger]

ya man whats up how is it going? i want to see how it looks

[acco-R-d]

its been almost 3 weeks, hows it going?

[carotman]

I saw a 3rd gen with a 4th gen frontend in a lowride magasine. it was a blue convertible.

They said it was a 1990 Accord but the interior was from a 3g and it had an A20A. lol.

[Cheeseburger]
