Project Nova

Looks good, which grey have you used?
Is it a vauxhall grey

Can or gun?

I used Autotek dark grey bumper and trim paint from a can.

Primered the rear quarter and stuck the door and wing rub strips on today.

What did you use to stick the rubstrips on with?

[TonySR]

Double sided tape 10mm x 1mm from eBay. Got three 5 metre rolls.

Waiting time...

So the nova has been on the road for a few months having passed it's MOT back in May. Few teething problems which I've now sorted mainly being it kept stalling whenever coming to a stop which was because it didn't have a VSS fitted.


Today I gave it a quick wash and fitted the new wheels.


Unsure if I should leave the centre caps as they are, paint them silver or painted the middle of the wheel anthracite?

Finished fitting the oe 'decat' exhaust today.

Today in between the showers we've had I managed to clean, hoover, polish and wax the nova...


I used a meguiars g220v2 da, ultimate compound polish and gold class liquid wax.

Fitted 2nd new starter motor after being sent wrong one first time, now selects first and reverse without having to hold it in gear and sorted the misfire under load by fitting the coil pack from the x16xe in my garage.

Will be pulling the engine out the tigra over winter and giving that a freshen up before fitting it in the nova.

Looks good, I reckon those silver Tigra 5 spokes would look great on it.
