Im going to paint my hatch this spring and i wanted to get a few comments on what you guys think of my 92 hatch painted the same way the ae86 initial D toyota is painted.. if any of you guys have a civic photo on file as well as photoshop maybe you guys could create something for me and give me a better idea of how it would look... thnx in advance fellas

i dunno - personally IMO i like solid color paint jobs.

but it's your car do waht you want.

have your own sense of style!

tominos

yea, i dunno about that. looks good on the eight six though. you should put the tofu shop stickers on the side. too bad civics aren't rwd.

Airbag Club

i think only an EF could pull it off, with it's boxyness...IMO.

.paul

agreed .. its the body panel lining as well. like the eg is flush and the 86 and ef have that 2 peice look

IM ALL BOB

most likely a 84-87 civic can pull it off better since the back slants more like the Trueno =P ... but just don't get upset if people make fun of you ..its like me making my civic look like the fast and furious cars with the big *** GRAPHIC sticker on the side.. but I love to see the 3 or 4 Panda truenos in the L.A area =P

the pics ive seen are a little different from the cartoon you have.. ive seen bottom half of the car black with a white strip mid way up then a black strip followed by white up top with a black hood... every one has solid color civics or off the wall colored civics in my neck of the woods.. and a few running around half painted

R you serious

thats not what hes talking about.. hes talking about Takumi's panda tureno

I saw an "EF" that was teal with the black bottom. It didn't look so great....

hehe im happy- my car WAS in initial D (well its not an eg6 but you know what i mean)

Don't be a poser. Your car isn't a hatchiroku.... Don't paint it like the panda ae86 from the akina mountain... Do something different. Like paint it metal flake Pink and with a picture of two Hentai lesbians making out on the hood or metal flake green with a hentai style chick in a school dress getting raped by tentacles... But not like a hatchiroku... Thats Otaku -travis

Not feelin' it, and to be honest you'll probably catch a lot of ****. Let your car be what it is and not a wanna be AE86.

I'm a big ID fan too and ive been looking for the EG6's front lip and this is the closest thing i can find.

If you painted the car and lip both Milano Red then it would be a pretty close match to the ID EG6. Its from J's Racing in Japan so it MIGHT be it, although I wouldn't put it past shigeno to have just drawn a generic aftermarket lip on the EG6. Someone on the board got one but I can't find the link just now.

That's just silly IMHO . . . those cars had all that nasty flat-black plastic trim because it was the style back in the '80s. Thank God it went away . . .
