Ive just bought a nova saloon and im thinking of ideas for it. I whipped up a photoshop of what i want it to look like. What do you all think?

I know the wheels arnt straight! Also the i wanted the take back panel off and smooth the holes but cant do it on photoshop

Also i cant decide on bumpers. Ive considered smooth gte front bumper and grill with a mk2 rear bumper but i really like the idea of a one piece early bumper and grill with a skinny rear bumper.

Ideas Welcome!

Nice, do it. But the offset is a killer as you'll need a hub stud convo so it pushes the wheels right out..

I know, ive found someone that does the conversion plates from 4 stud to 5 stud fairly cheap. I dont know anyone thats put porsche wheels on a nova so im unsure if theyll fit or not?

Smooth and clean. Good look. Aamir has Porsche whhels on his black Nova. His wip is in the projects section and its also in this months Fast Car. Corsas have had Porsche rims on to. Hub adaptor plates can be obtained from www.venommotorsport.com (http://www.venommotorsport.com) eBay, etc.

Fit and fit are two different things..lol
Fit= bolt on with a kit.
Fit= not rub like funk..

lol seen them on a hatch, never a loon. Do it!

The basics are there.

- Slammed.
- Nice wheels.

Just need your individual touches to set it apart from others.
