I saw an FC like this on another forum just yesterday! I got me thinking about if this was available for the s13 and BEHOLD! Here it is! I'd love info on it too.... Its interesting, but the jury's still out on it IMO...

i think it looks sweet, but that back window is too small. too many many blind spots for my liking.

i bet you can find one, dont listen to person above.

honda people find the most insanely hard **** to find for those cars. so its not anywhere impossible, its just about getting the right info, and sourcing one out.

for the cost of finding such a monster and shipping it........

I would find a busted S13 and chop the top of that and make my own. who cares if you thrash it the first few times...... it will cost you next to nothing at the junkyard anyway.

it is hot as SHlT though

i was about to say youd better have some aero and nice fitting wheels if you have any hope of pulling that off niceley, but the pic the guy just posted actually isnt too bad

would look a lot better though with better paint, and nicer wheels all around (fitment.. choice... etc.), and also OEM aero might make it work better too

a hatch/roof spoiler would probably be sick on that thing

but please atleast have a drop and wheels if you want to pull it off, because unless i can be proved wrong/corrected again... you wont be able to pull it off

Was this thread really needed? NO. Yeah they're hard to find, but ask people where they got theirs etc look it up, I know there are threads on it, I did a search for it just last week. I'm getting sick of the same topics 1,000,000,000 times. Hatch is nice, I do want one, look around you too can find it. kthxbye.

Wow. That looked faded on me way too quick. It's looks pretty nice, but would I ever do it... not likely.

All I would want is the hatch, I could swap it out every so often when I feel like a Ferrari look.

They are way to expensive. I wonder how hard it would be to make my own out of fiberglass? maybe not to bad. Take an old hatch and make a fiberglass copy. Then cut out the glass area and make walls and fiberglass that. Cut a hole for the glass and sand the hole thing down and paint it. Maybe kinda hard......... humm......

it'll be hard and time consuming. it's probably better to just buy one and mold it and resell back the original
