Nice work, what color is your 1:1 car?

..I hope to get my Teg finished soon..

Duping a 1:1 is the hardest thing to do. Good luck with this build. Someday I would like to dupe my 1:1 Crown Vic Sport Interceptor if I could find a GD Crown Vic model. All I have found is a CMW NYC taxi 1:20.

Maybe I should just get a JDM and make my life easier. :)

Great pics, thanks.

sweet start...and reeeally sweet 1:1

Yep, thata 1:1 is really sweeeet :smokin:

thanks for all the compliments guys. I have to run out to LHS and pick up some fine sand paper.

Nice 1:1 car you have! I hope the model turns out as beautifull as the real car.

:eek: :eek: :eek: Sorry to change the subject on your post but sweeeeet 1:1 car, you think you can PM me some more pix of it? :naughty:

lol. seems like everyone is interested in my 1:1 more than my model. its cool, they both look the same eventually. :iceslolan

Looks like you got your work cut out for ya. The 1:1 looks good. Keep us posted on the build up.

Both cars are great, can't wait to see the model finished!

Nice jdm conversion :)

The model as well as the real deal are looking fine!

Besides the mirrors , what exactly did you do to it, as I ve never seen any car or kit like this before, but it looks interesting to say the least,

All the fujimi integra models are based on the 95-97 model yrs. To make this car a 98+, I had to make a lower valance on the rear bumper. There are other exterior differences like HID headlights, but i don't think that is gonna happen on this model. hehe

That is dope.

Good luck with making the replica. You own VERY beautiful car, I hope you realize that.
I'll be keeping an eye over the pics ;)

Just a question; how you'll get that titanium frost pearl mixed together? IMO this kind of paint is one of the most suitable for any Honda.

How much will you sell me the side window rain vents on the 1:1 for my car? I've been looking everywhere and cant find them!

is your car an actual imported jdm teg? or a conversion of a ford/acura teg?

nevermind, i see the steering wheel... nice model btw! i'm not sure but light gunmetal might work....

pretty good with the mirrors and the rear bumper. is that putty work?

Great job keep it up man

Very cool. Your 1:1 is beautiful. Are you going to cut the dash to make it LHD or are you gonna use the dash from another kit (like a Fujimi Civic?) Are you going to use real Honda paint (is it even a factory color?) or what? This is gonna be fantastic.

or a conversion of a ford/acura teg?

Ford/Acura? What?

Im pretty sure his kit came with both RHD and a LHD dash, cuz mine did and the only difference is mine is Mugen but they share the same parts.

sorry, these are gonna stay. try www.passwordjdm.com ask for Leo. He'll hook you up.

ummm...its just an USDM teg with a JDM frontend. no ford here.

yes this was all done with tamiya sculpting putty and a piece of styrene stick. O yah, i forgot to mention this is my first time using putty.

actually the kit did come with an option of using a LHD or RHD. I might just use the LHD for the fun of it. The paint is going to be tricky, since this is not a factory honda color. I have to get creative here or get some of the orginal paint.

O yah, thanks for all the kind words again guys!

nice work! Love the advan rg rims... :icon16:

If you really want a replica go to a body shop and have them paint it... :dunno:

Or go and see if you can't buy a couple ounces of it, hopefully whoever painted your car can get more or has some left over. Automotive paint thins easily and works great through an airbrush. Then you'd have a dead match. Ask them what color primer they used too, if you want to be real retentive (I would be).

Now you've inspired me to build a replica of my 1:1 Integra. Did you do the JDM taillights? If so, what all is required to do that?

there is no difference in the taillights appearance wise except for no side reflector lens in the JDM piece.
