    7g Hatch with 8g Front

    I have never seen this on here before. I was on Bing and stumbled across this. It has been executed very well and looks pretty dang good imo. I don't care for the color.

    It was well done, but it doesn't flow well with the 7g lines.
    7g for life!

    looking at it from behind, the slop of the fenders looks good, from the front though, it leaves something to be desired.

    almost looks like an 8g front clip welded onto the hatch.

    I love the rear of those 7G hatches. I wish they had those here!

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    even with the shorter jdm 8g front, on the 7g it just looks like the hood/front bumper is stickin out of the front of the car way too far, like it was stretched maybe to fit a v8 in there or something... kinda like jay leno's chin, you can't quite put your finger on why it looks a little goofy until you know what you're lookin at. the work itself looks quality tho.

    it looks good but its roundish looking in the back and not the front so it looks a lil weird

    i'll tell you right now what looks off=== take a good look at the first pic see the difference between front and rear wheel openings the front sits flat and the rear dips in toward the tire, second rear bumper from a side view does the same as the rear quarter dips in... overall the workman ship is top notch they took their time and blended the two body's dam good, i like it cause it's different but i don't think i would drive it mainly cause its orange... never seen a 7g hatch before

    Maybe some fender flares would help.

    I don't like how huge the front end is compared to the rear. But that is one sexy rear end.

    I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this.

    yeah the rear doesnt match that well with the front, but the paint is awesome, it looks great with the great with the front end
