search even though u wont find much 90% of all parts u see on this website are custom one offs all i can say is unless u have a deep pockets or true body work talent ull end up ditching th hatch

most of us are only here for the restoration of the 3g some do go extreme but like i said it dose get quite expensive

theres a few guys on here with very well done kits, but i belive they are custom made, im sure they will see this and chime in on some ideas

[turabaka]

can't you just take the ones for the sedans and coupes, and modify the side skirts a little? I thought that the bumpers were the same. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.does anybody remember the minivan side pieces that fit the hatch? i'm working on black painted rolled steel tubes for the front and back lips. and the rear bumper on the hatch is totally different then all the others,but the same all the hatch years for the third generation.

[turabaka]

I see. Is it possible to modify a bodykit for the sedans and coupes the fit a hatch? or does it have to be completely custom?

[lostforawhile]

front is the same,but the back has to be custom.

[turabaka]

Interesting to know. Thanks for clearing that up.

this site here offers the widest range of bodykits for the 3rd gen accord of any that i have seen. They do not look half bad eaither. Yeah but the bumper has to be modified to fit. I figured that out It will be a small challenge.

I may bot be super proficent with body work but im going to try to make this a one of a kind. Im thinking about dropping an F1 Engine in it or F22 what are some thoughts on the matter? They are far more upgradeable but i dunno yet.

i think the xenon kit looks the best on the 88-89 style cars. here is a pic.

if you rigged up a couple of fire extinguishers out the back like the deleorean,.....actually i swear thats what they put on it for the movie.

I say go oem...or nothing. I hate body kits personally, very few I like. The mugen bumper covers and such look awesome but good luck finding those lol. There are only a few cars with good looking kits on this site. Toneloc def. has one.

[ghettogeddy]

the Kaminari kit is the only one that looks good on that site if u can get ur hands on a eurbuni kit or xenon kit the by all means but those are the only 3 kits id go with i say if u want it to be unique just custom make a lip kit like just an add on kit sould look good

Instead of putting a bodykit on your car, sell it to me for $300 and buy a civic.

Im thinking about dropping an F1 Engine in it or F22 what are some thoughts on the matter? They are far more upgradeable but i dunno yet.lol, like mentioned above, if you have deep pockets, or great skills, you probably wont get far. i would however love it if you prove me wrong :)

well I may not have very deep pockets but I do have skill. An as well as skill I have help as well. I have already started ripping out theat old decrepid interrior, an bought some mild metal tubing to make my roll cage out of.
The most expensive part that I have come accross yet is the dash for my car. New from honda is 600.00 bucks.

But other than that Im making my own "CAI & Exaust", an currently im looking for a good cam an some p30 pistons to put under the hood. I am hoping that ZEX makes a cam or maybe Skunk. I have only spent about 750.00 so far. But its comming along better than I expected.

[Civic Accord Honda]

why put a F22 in when u can go H22

[turabaka]

hahah. I bought my new dash in near perfect condition on ebay for $1.00. Just look around and be patient. you can find good parts for this car cheap if you wait.
