a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch **update 08-04-2010**
Almost 2 years have passed since i've saw my hatch the last time.
I miss her SOOOOO much.
Here'S some pics of the progression
Preparing the shaving and the custom side skirt.
And the result on Primer.
Shaving the top!
Next step, molding the front 88-89 bumper with the custom lip.

coool. I wanna see the b20a in the engine bay cause thats what I'm more interested in. I hope it looks well. How come you didn't see it for 2 years?
What is that lip off of?
It's not what you drive, It's that you drive what you got! I LOVE MY 3Gee!
lookin good. put that lip on so we can see how it looks
hmm, this looks interesting. hope to see more pix of progress. looks like it'll be really nice when its finished up.
Keep it HONDA. Or at least Asian.™

Looking for K20/trans for ultimate swap
That's one huge wrist watch!!
Busted_Blue: The reason is, i've lost my job. I wasn't able to pay the job. So, the guy keeped my car 'till i have the money to continue this project. He's a really cool guy! For the B20A, i'll get my gasket kit soon. One of my friend ship the kit from Belgium. I can't wait!!

looks good, but i bet youll have a problem with cracks where you shaved the roof. thats a stress point on the car. but good luck anyway!
Check out my family site: mysite.verizon.net/vze8kudg
The guy did a few other roof shaved like this and no crack since 2 years. It's not some putty. It's welded.

Man that lip does look good. Any progress?
Yea, looks like a sweet project.
Some problem with the front lip at the moment. Now the driver side is finished too. We are still working on the Front lip. We still didn't find what to do for the rear bumper as lip... We will put a hood scoop too for the Dual Weber DCOM who will be on the B20A.
The guy who's working on my car did this 1991 accord too. It was for his daughter(another member of the Quebec Accord Club with me and Carotman)

He did a lot of custom for this car. He work soooo FINE!!!

man your hatch is making some nice progress. I think primer is gangsta.
eh, i'm not feeling that 4G, however, dont like this kit and all the stuff flaring out at me.
your hatch reminds me exactly of josias's early stages. looks sick! that white 4th gen looks like a robot.
3geez for life.
Man that 4g is sweet. It would look better imo with some clear/red tails and that hood scoop centered. That guy does spme really nice custom work though.
What happened to the doors? In the primered pics they look nice and flush to the door. But in the final pics, they are indented (not flat and even with the rest of the door). Was this a planned decision, or did you use bondo/fiberglass and it "sunk" in.Originally Posted by L3G10N

I thought from the earlier pictures that you welded in metal strips.

Here's some pics with the mags. I'll need to enlarge the body... 18"x7.5" on that car... it's REALLY large
88accordhb: you're right! Josias told me a lot of hint to made my baby. His car is just what i want. So, since he have changed some parts, i'Ve took his last model to made mine. All this, with his permission
