This car is often parked in front of a house near mine. It’s a bright orange ’92-’95 Honda Civic hatchback to which someone decided to add a “dual” exhaust and also mold in taillights from a 90s Cadillac DeVille.

Now, I didn’t want to like, walk up to someone’s driveway and take a picture of the car there, because what if they come out of their house? But recently, the car was parked down the street instead of in their driveway, so fair game!

Oh, and it has an old FEAR THIS banner along the bottom of the windshield. Anyone else remember those cheesy !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ? Those were real popular when I was in middle school, but I never got a NO FEAR t-shirt. I was too busy rocking my Stüssy and Mossimo (before they became a Target house brand) t-shirts. Oh yeah, I was too cool for my middle school.

I’m assuming there used to be some kind of front lip spoiler attached where you see all that grey primer.

For reference, here are the taillights in their natural habitat:

This is what an EG Civic hatch’s taillights normally look like:

Truly, this was a massive achievement of bodywork prowess.

Nice Saul Goodman reference, of all pics to choose.

Sometimes I want to make fun of something, but it’s just done so well, you have to admire their dedication.

Looks good..... FROM THE BACK. You lost me at the windshield banner and the shot of the front. Ugh.

This is frustrating. I think the EG hatch is one of the best looking cars Honda has ever produced. Up there with the NSX - seriously. It’s the perfectly bulbous 90’s hatchback, and they’re good cars to boot!

And then... the Cadillac tail lights. Ack. As others have noted, it’s too well done and got too much into it to offer much criticism... At least they did it well. But why?!

That’s some impressive body work. If it had been an EJ hatch instead of an EG, I’d call it an improvement.

Would look fine if this whole bumper area was lowered to the level under the lights.
