i finished the accord smoothing today and got ahold of a digi cam, its not the best in the world but i tried my best to make it work. i had to rush a little bit on this kit,( somthing i thought i would nevr have to do) because of a promise i made o someone. if with a little more time it would have turned out better. one thing i didnt like abou the kit is that the aftermarket sideskirts, front and rear bumpers, have to be glued onto the existing stock pieces, so alittle putty was needed to make the gaps les visible, and constructive critism would be apreciated:) http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/54944864185398goXGzq_ph.jpg

I tell you what, you ain't gonna get much traction in the snow with those low profile tires. Drive carefully. :D

The headlights are too dark for my tastes but great otherwise!

Nice kit, but its to dark for me. Kinda like dipped in a bucket of paint. The rims do look nice though

another thing about this kit is that for the head and til lights, normally on other kits, there is a chrome backing to go behind the clear part, well not for this kit, so i tried and painted the inside chrome, it still didnt look good, so i was forced to use the smoked head and tail lights. i would never use the smoke head and tails on a 1:1 car but it seems like i was left with no choice;)

Looks great. The thing I like most about it is that it does'nt have that American import loom to it, it looks like it came from Europe, it's nice. Does it have an interior???

interior is stock, i decided i was gonna use the tinted windows, so i didnt have to use paint on the interior:cool:

Looks good overall, It seems to be lacking a little detail here and there making it look more like a toy than a model. Don't get me wrong, I like this is just my constuctive critisism.:sun:

detail is there, window frames are done, panel lines are done also, the paint job kinda covers up those things, an he camera doesnt help it it much either ;)

Looks very nice and black.
Only thing I am wondering.. how would a driver open this car... no handles no locks no nothing... or does he have to break his window every time to get in.. :D
But great job.

Its simple to open the door.. just push a buttom and it opens.. On my 1:1 mitsu my doors are smoother then a baby butt and my door open via a alarm remote.. push the 1 key drivers door pops open 2 key pass door pops open.. pretty simple till the battery dies then your screwed..LOL.. thats why i did a walk through in my truck that lets me clime in the back.. a big pain if ya ask me..
