WIP: Honda Civic 93" daily driver!

[NOMADGAMER]

i was planning to chop the hasegawa front clip and from the door ding guards down, but i am coming to realize that you are correct, there is an indentation on the coupe door/quarters that is not present in the hatchback.

i thought the doors were interchangable from 92-95?

on a third look, it seems that the hatch and coupe share the lower indentation, that that the hasegawa kit is in error.

That EG is sick! I like your taste in hondas man! On with the build!

What indentation are you talking about? If you are referring to the lack of "door ding guards" (door moldings) in that pic above, it's because it's a CX/VX trim level which doesn't have moldings at all.

That's 100% correct. updates to follow....

With a dust of primer...still needs more work putty...

The front bumper still needs some serious care & attention, not to mention the overall fitting of both bumpers... The last time i built a Revell USA kit was back in the late 80's...this reminds me why i usually don't buy revell...

The white plastic you see under the doors will serve as the rocker panel extensions, black of course. And the hood is fit test fitting only...obviously lol...

Looks like you're doing a great job so far! Keep it coming! As far as the hood goes, yours came with the clear hood right? The clear hood is a stock hood (except for the fact that it's clear) but all you gotta do is paint it and it'll work just fine.

I always like the concept of replicating one's 1:1 ride...too bad there are no '91 Explorer kits out there, LOL. Great work so far. I know you will be able to get it in the end.

Looking good! Good work on taking care of that front bumper! The hood should be easy to fix too!

Looking forward to see more.

Ahh,beautiful! ^^
Great work on the bumper! Seems like you are going to suffer a little bit,but that's normal!

I think the revell civics need a little correction on the headlights...I think they're too big and a little weird! o_O

There is a clear hood, that's the one i'll be using, it's actually just been primered yesterday

Ya Rod, i'm suffering alright, the bumper is tough, but it;s coming along.. I agree with you on the headlights, they are slightly out of proportion, but i've been thinking about it, and it may not be the wisest option to play with, since it mean modifying clear parts + having to extend the hood...i'm too lazy

any up date's on this build....

[MaxSE]

well i'm back,(again) well I was always around but finally think i will have some time in the next few weeks to continue working on this thing... since then though my daily driver has gone through some cosmetic changes that will have to be added to the scale model... see updated 1:1 pics below...
