wondering if anyone else has done this but i well on my way on this
converting the aoshima 2.3vtl accord late wagon to a 01 accord sedan
so far cut the roof to look like sedan,
door handles to reflect real life ones,
shaved off roof rack (i dont have one on my real car) so its not here too)
puttied holes between front bumper and body same for rear..
broke a tic tac box and used the plastic to form the trunk about to putty the holes between that today.
still need to do
form c-pillars (fatter on the sedan than wagon) for archs on trunk and roof to conform to rear windshield)
cut rear to extend rear lights to license plate,
i guess cast some new tail lights to fit in new openings.
anyways it'll be easier.. i'll post some picks tommorow
but if anyone has done this, any feed back would help

looks pretty cool... you should invest in some styrene sheets for future projects since it is much easier to work with than a broken tic tac box. Im not sure what kind of plastic the tic tac box is made of but im pretty sure it has different properties than styrene. still a clever idea though. you're like MacGuyver. keep us posted
