here's a couple pics finally; in the whole car pic i had the side skirts off. and those are the black house headlights and red/smoke tails i bought. the white car is my old 88 accord, sold it last year.

Looks great!! Is the front of the 1994 coupe and hatchback the same?

hey thanks man, appreciate it. yup, 92-95 (5th gen) civics all have the same front end, hatch coupe and sedan.

I am liking the headlights and side turn signal lights. I read somewhere that there is a thread for Spray Painted Hatchbacks but I can't seen to find it. I thought about spray painting my car flat white. It should look better than it looks right now. I am pretty good at DIY should it should look decent. It's a $1,000 car so I don't see no need to spend over $500 for paint. lol

hey thanks. i was thinking of just tinting the heads and tails but decided to get new lights instead; i think it looks much better IMO.

i think white would look a lot better than teal lol, that's my least favorite color on any car. but i would do it right, with primer. also, flat white? i think a metallic would look much better, or gloss; at the very least matte white which is the middle of flat and gloss. that's the next thing i reealy need to do to my car; get my rust spots fixed and a paint job.

Loven the 88 accord. That was my first car. Was slow as hell but still fun on a back road. Mine was nicknamed the "chalkboard", cause I spray painted it flat black (redneck style) but it was some good times!! Ej1 needs to be lowered.

thanks GolNat; i loved that accord too. definitely slow, but fun. chalkboard lol nice name for the color.

and thanks for the reminder... i know i need to lower my ej1

trying to save some money to fix the rust, paint, and lower all at once. if i wouldn't have bought another car i would have the money...

Cool, This is great to know. All Fenders are all the same on 92-95? I am looking for fenders. I just want to make sure!

I like those tails

94civicd16z6

92-95 hatchback and coupe have the same fenders. sedan fenders DO NOT fit. i need a driver fender and a hood... if you find some extra parts LET ME KNOW! used oem parts are the way to go, aftermarket junk is, well, junk..

hey thanks man. i love 5th gens, but hate the style of their tails. i was debating on red/smoke or red/white, but decided the smoke.

Your hood and fenders look good on these pictures? Why did you needed new ones? I really like your head lights. But as I said before this car is supposed to save me some $$ but little by little it adds up. lol.

You said paint job on your car, Are you going actual paint or rattle can job?

94civicd16z6

believe me when i say, the camera makes them look ok, but up close dent city.. lol. already got a hood, and thought i had a fender.. but ya, still look. thanks, i searched for a while before i found these and decided, and glad i did cause i love em too. haha ya it's hard to not dump money when you love cars so much, especially with so many mods out there, especially for hondas.

ya my paint is faded to crap, and i have some rust spots on the rear quarter panels. gunna take me some time to bondo so i'm gunna wait a while to do it. driving the civic in the winter = no good.. i have a couple friends who paint and work at body shops so i'm going to get some help doing the bondo and prepped to paint, then i can get it sprayed for reeeal cheap.
