Hey all!

I'll try to make this quickly:
My brother owns a 98 model (I think) Accord Wagon,T4 model,here's a pic...

I'm going to reproduce it,in 1/24! So I bought a 2.3 Accord Wagon VTL from Aoshima,and it is just great! Parts fit nicely,exept for the openable rear hatch,which is going to be a little bit hard to line with the rest of the body,but some minor sanding will make it look good ;)
To match the car's wheels,I bought some Fujimi idontknowthename wheel,that looks almost exactly the same...
Here's the dry-fitted model,standing next to the real thing (Model alredy primed!)

Nice,eh!?
So,I moved on the the things that had to be modded to make it a nice replica ;)

The front grill!!

The kit front grill looked like this one...

And,as you can see on the pictures above,my brother's grill has some...I don't it's name in english...Hmmm Steps? Pads?! o_O
So,I went modding it...
Stretched some sprue and I made it...

But,the glue made it look all messy,so I'm thinking about cutting the Honda symbol off the grille,and make another one of styrene...
And I drilled part of the bumper in order to make it...

But let's do that later!

When I test fitted the rear bumper,there was a gap,that would be VERY visible when the trunk was opened,so I went on and puttied it...

That's it for now!

Comments,suggestions,and corrections are very welcome!

Thanks for viewing this thread!

nice car, good luck with rest of the project ;)

Aside from the wheels it looks like a really nice Accord!! Not a fan of the wheels though. But looks like you're doing a great job replicateing it!!

the wheels are almost identical to the 1:1, but they are not my taste.

progress looks great!
