    Yay or Nay Photoshop (LEGEND+ACCORD)

    Well I kinda like it, but at the same time the popup just make the car look good. I know the paint doesnt match, it is because the legend picture was not as high of resolution. I DO NOT PLAN ON DOING THIS, I am just curiose what people think.

    yeah it does look good. but its going to take lots of skills and time. plus why do you want to mess with the honda 3g front end...the japanese knew that flip lights were unique since its the only accord that has them...so far

    Theres acually been several cars that have had flip ups.

    And dude, i kind of like the look of that. It would only work on the hatch.
    Are the dimensions doable?

    Re: Yay or Nay Photoshop (LEGEND+ACCORD)

    Just... Ew.
    Our hoods come up to much to match with the Legend headlights, and it looks even worse on a hatch. I know you're not planning this swap, but to anyone who's thinking "Hey, I wanna try that" no. Go buy a Legend.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    Yeah I do like that look, but I agree the flip up lights made our cars unique.

    Try 2006-45=1961. Still too early, but the 20ish years are a little exaggerated. HE wasn't even born in 1941.
