After seeing the new trend in america with the retro car (mustang, charger, camaro, ETC) I wondered what it would be like if hodna decided to go thsi path. So I PS an 05 accord and made a Retro Hatch. THis is a work in progress and I could not figure anything for the headlight covers :dunno: . Let me know if you guys have any ideas.

Did you mean bit smaller? If so, I noticed that but it looked kinda weird when i made it bigger. Thanks for the compliments

Ok last one for the night, This car is starting to grow on me. I want to send a picture to Mr. Honda himself. I tried putting side molding, but it looked incredibly stupid so I went with rims.

Actually it is very likely that we will be seing a v8 RL, Accord, and NSX in the next few year.

You can't comment here now that you dont have your hatch anymore :squint: . J/P thanks for the good comment
maybe you can add some style when the lights are up?

imo the lights up, looks no different from 20 years ago when they did make them. good photoshop skills you got though :)

oh, it will, just not for another 20 years. because they aren't making a comeback of anything from the 80s. and yeah, honda does need to step up the nsx. a 300 hp v6 doesn't quite cut it when they have a 240-250 hp i4 in production right with it.

well have to wait 20 or 30 years for honda to do a retro style 3g and by then we might be able to design our own cars from honda kinda like you order a custom computer from dell or something.
but anyways i like it,
it should be called a G37 Accord
(3rd and 7th generation Accord)
