Is the paint line off between the fender and the door? It looks o.k. but I'm not into the two tone...but thats just my opinion.
Props for the work, don't get me wrong bro, but not my style.
I really like what you did with the side molding. Filling the molding holes, but leaving the groove, nice.

Thanks dude. Yeah I took the pics at sunset, wanted to get some in before the sun went down. I like the dip by the gas cap especially, because it set my Honda apart from the rest

The car is looking good, I just have a few questions. Why does it look like the paint on the fender and door dont line up? Does the bumper on the passanger side line up with the fender because it looka little off? What are you going to do with the license plate hole on the bumper? Other then a few small things it looks really good. Take some more pics.

Thankx for all of the good comments. I have a car show I'm going to be in today. The liscence plate will get moved down and I'm thinking about shaving the plate where my liscense plate used to be. It feels good to have my baby back finally though!

why didnt you have the license plate hole filled in the rear bumper? looks weird without a plate and with one at the top. and are you gettting a dual exhaust? or are you going to leave those spots open like that?
Yeah I'm getting dual exhaust. Tried to get it done yesterday but the shop was closed..........And as far as the rear bumber is concerned I will move it when I get a little time.

Man, this car looks real nice. I'm not really feelin the front bumper, but the rest of the kit looks good. I like the paint and the rims. Nice job. Looks like lots of hard work went into it. And its definately a step up from before. So good job.

Yeah I love it man! You just don't see too many old school accords with two-tone paint jobs. It got a lot of reaction at the car show today. I took all of the badges off, so people were asking me what kind of car is that? It was pretty funny.

I want to give mad props to Tanya & Lucky at Hard Times Customs for pimpimg my ride. By the way Tanya did the paint and yeap she's a female. Justin (The Asian Inside ) has his ride redone also I'll have to go get my camera so I can post some pics.

But this car show preparation killed most of my time.how are you going to cover up where the original plate goes? I used a late model altima wing that I put up on posts for clearance,you beat me to the paint job though,I had discussed with my wife about using that body line,but we decided to use the lower one.

reanimator420

05-08-2006, 02:55 AM

you should put a monitor in the license plate hole either on the bumper or trunklid lol wouldn't that be rice

bullard123

05-09-2006, 08:51 PM

Interesting... I like the work, man. The two-tone paint job really gives it the angular mid-80s flair, I think. I've seen a few T16 Celicas in a similar scheme and they look awesome, and they're similar-looking to the 3G hatch. However, there's a local car show going on soonish? Might have to look into that....
Yeah it was this past Sunday at memorial park. I had like three people walk up to me and told me that my car was on the evening news. I thought that was pretty cool.

it might work, mine I got of an 05 Subaru STI and I had to modfy it but it looked like it wold fit the 4th gen accord, I had another one of a acura cl and that one I wold had to modify, because the hinges on the 3rd gen are a little spread out more, and plus U have to lighten up the doors a bit, on mine I cut holes in the inside of the door and eliminated the seat belts and went with a 4 point hardness 4 both sides

Sweet, it looks boxy still and it has a really solid body feel to it also much more low and stable looking stance.

Wing or no wing that is awesome.

I'm jealous of the hoodscoop :)

The two tone paint is perfect.
