    Default New pics, rimmage!

    Hey guys,

    Thought I'd keep you updated with some more pictures of the nova - since the last few pics and all the feedback, decided to stick with the front bumper and keep me eyes on the look out for some alloy wheels - Mille Miglia Spiders, 15" with 195/45/15's wrapped round em - picked em up on saturday! What do you all think?!

    Before:



    And after a bit of a clean, a wax and the new wheels....





    Need to get the front lowered pretty mega! Was thikning 60mm on the front and 40mm on the back? Or maybe just 60mm on the front and nothing on the back....

    Cheers!

    Jim

    They look real nice mate 8)
    car looks pretty clean as well
    Lower the whole car about 40mm.
    60mm might see the wheels rubbing the back arches.

    Keith has his Nova Lowered about 80mm at least and it doesn't rub even with his 16" on. Be a man and lower it 75 at the front and 600 at the rear, you know i'm right. :: Looks Class mate.
    I spent 90% of my money on Drink and Women, the rest I just wasted.

    Thats the Burgandy red isn't it, the same as Nicks? Nice, but could do with being a shade lighter :wink:

    I'd say 60mm as its on 15s...
