Here are some update pics of the car I am building to replicate my own. I have everything but the actuall front end on my real car ( check it out at http://www.jacksoncreation.com) but that will come soon, I just want to see what it will look like 1/24th scale before I buy it for my car. This model has taken many hours of building and rebuilding to get where it is now. I am using 4 models to complete this one! a '95 4dr rear end matted to a SiR II EG H/B front end, it has the Revell Type R motor (I say it is a SiR II because that is what my real civic has) and dash and the front end is now from a JDM "Feels" honda integra. The Integra front end is considerable wider even after I cut a gap out of the middle of the Integra hood. I am going to have to widen the civic body to accept the front end with out making the car look like it has a "Wide body body kit that will just stick the fenders out". Anyway I hope you enjoy the pics, input is definetely appreciated!:

Hey where did u get the Carbon Fiber decals at? IF u did online where? IM trying to look for a place to get some. Thanx:)

I made the intake out of parts tree plastic and painted it stoplight red to look anodized. I had to cut alot of plastic to make the integra bay look as close as it now does to a civic bay, I still have some cleaning up to do to it before I will say it is done (the engine bay that is)

I bought the decals from a local shop around here but it closed down now so I am screwed. I saw a post on here on how to make carbon fiber decal paper so I PMed the guy to ask if he can just make some for me and I will pay him for like 10 sheets or something. I know model masters does make some though.

Yeah i know, but its the cheap decals. He just prints them out from his computer on to sticker paper. It doesnt even look like Carbon Fiber. Thanx though.:)

yeah, before there was a link in your "vehicle" section of your avatar profile thing, and it was so long that it made your avatar bar alot wider then it's supposed to be, but it looks fine now.
btw good work on the car, sorry if i dragged this a bit off topic.

No it is not going to offcially be a "wide body", I have to widen the rear of the car to make up the difference in width compared to the JDM integra front end, they are 1:25 and 1:24 scale so I need to match them to make it look right. I also don't want it to look wide body because this is the project I am basing my Real Civic on. The B16 motor I already have but the front end is not yet in my possesion.

I sculpted them out of DTM seats I had laying around from one of my race car models (I can't remember which one). I intented them to look like red Sparco Torinos.

I am probably going to keep the front end, I put alot of custom work into it to make it look like my real civic. I will probably use it on one of my future civic models.

Here is a shot of the rear, It just doesnt look that custom in primer state so that is why I did not shoot it yet, but here you go

02-17-2003, 10:01 PM
I guess it is more custom than I thought, I forgot I used a 4dr rear for this kit and I had to add a lot of plastic to stretch it out and make it look like a 2dr trunk.

I have some models I have built that are not honda/imports, they are on my website (linked under my signature) only thing is I built all my domestic models before I ever knew about all the sweet import models I now build. My real life taste in cars just leans on imports so that is what I usually build. here are some old school models I built:
