ok, no need to comment on the fit. i know it sucks, and im already looking for a proper body(hence the loooong posts). the problem is that its a Tamiya FF01 chassis, meaning the motor is in the front, and low hoods are a no-no. also, no comments on the overflowing trashcan. i was too busy painting/decaling this body. anyway, its an HPI DC2 Integra Type R body, painted in a Tamiya rattle can "Copper" color, backed with Pactra Sprint White. has Yokomo wipers and mirrors(mirrors color matched, they were black), HPI TE37 wheels.

also, this is my first time painting/decaling a body in about 12 years. i know the paint job is extremely simple, but there are minor flaws here and there

there is no sunlight here lol. my kitchen lights have to do the trick for now.

anyway, i just wanted to post some pics of it. i know the paint job sucks(i ran out of copper), and i know the fit sucks(until i can find a vintage FWD tamiya civic body).

(until i can find a vintage FWD tamiya civic body).

Watch ebay but expect to pay big money for one. If you really want a Civic Hatch you can also get one from Frewer. Watch ebay seller oz-rc he always sells them. I have a used (painted) Tamiya Civic body too.

Great body, the color is nice too, but the trimming needs a little work.

yeah looks good a little trimming will really clean it up though
