started sawing, sanding and fiberglassing a little tonight...


No, its not much yet... tomorrow will be some fun with sanding and the fine detail work... hopefully by the end of the weekend I can have it all together...




Another project of mine included taking Cryogen97's idea, and making the variable rate flasher... only I used a different variable resistor so I can slow it down a lot as well as speed it up...



I'm gonna need this for my LED turn signals...

 

Is your accord a 94? I am thinking about doing this mod too but im kinda skurred. I have never done bodywork, worked w/bondo, so im kinda worried that it won't come out as good as the one's i've seen on the board. I want to do something different though, not quite sure what yet, everybody has the same Type-R grill, I want to change it up and do it a little bit different. We'll see what I come up with when I grow the balls to try it:naughty:

 

yeah, its a 94

its not too bad... fiberglass is relatively easy to work with... just a little messy.. and if once its dry you realize its messed up... just sand it down... same with bondo.

I'm gonna try to change mine up a little... nothin too fancy, just a lil somethin.

 

Pro-DIY! Screwing around with your own car is a lot more satisfying than paying hundreds of dollars for a pre-made part that everybody has.

Bravo.

 

plus the premade one looks like ass.

 

does it?? I never saw one in person...

 

did you fiberglass over the top?? I did mine on the back side to provide a backing for the bondoglass. lol I didnt take mine aprt either. that striaght though it looks good, good luck with it.

 

just FYI, it's really a DIY mugen replica grill, there really isn't an accord type R 5th gen, only SiRs

 

thanks for the clarification

 

looks like ass compared to a modified oem one.
