i am now on the headlight conversion now im rebuilding the front round sum black halo polo 6n headlights as they are the same shape as the nova ones give or take a bit but plans are , re shape the bad boy bonnet so it sits allot higher up and does not cover as much of the lights so it should look really different

As much as I like subtle Nova's, theres something about that I like alot!

Fair play for going against the grain (GSi kit, Speedlines)!!!

the difference with this one compared to all the other kitted bull**** is this is done to a very high standard which is why it works.

You on drugs?

Not my cup of tea but liking the arch's, think if you got a set of motorsport theme'd wheels it could look awesome from the side, 17/18" mo's etc and a fairly subtle-ish front and rear, don't go mental with the catty in other words but at the end if the day it's your car, if it puts a smile on your coupon that's all that matters

Edit: ps get a wip thread if you don't already have one! Interested to see more of this

As said above, Personally I'm not in to big kits but this should look good with some quality paint work

not my cup of tea, but i admire the work youve put into such a project. id like a bash at doing something simalier myself as i enjoy doing bodywork, and its a good feeling to stand back and look at your hardwork. would have to be someone elses car though! lol

you draging your ass on this arnt you lol,good to see you havent gave up yet. be nice to see a body kitted nova done to a standard not just bodged together,

And by the way why dont you just add to your first thread insteed of making a new one every time you update? will be easyer for new members to see what has been done already!

This is almost taking as long as my Puntove build! lol

'tis one mental project. The only thing I'd do is slightly sculpt the bad boy bonnet around the lights so its not so severe and raise the front bumper in so the profile at the side is in line with the side skirts (make it easier to drive too).

Is the ride height the height youre aiming for? If so good luck with British roads and the hundreds of hours spent on body work which will be fecking in 5 mins!!!

liking the lambo doors, think its the boyracer in me, lol, 27 now :( . good work though, like the look of it, arches and all. just hope its not a 1ltr because it wont move for all the fiberglass and filler, lol.

Good Skills.:thumb:

as most people have said not my cuppa.

but i have to take my hat off and the craftmanship and time thats been put into it.

i was a panal beater myself when i left school and was into all of this but after my 1st kitted car i grew outta the huge body kit scene.

keep up the good work and get some more pics and updates

Regards Jimbo
