nova colour choice

[NOVA-KID-93]

hi, i have a red nova it is starting to look abit tired and just had some bodywork done so i think it is due for a full re-spray i want to keep it red but i dont know what red to go for, what do you guys think?

[Jack]

Mexico Red :D

[Jay]

Ferrari rosso red, i really like this colour at the mo....

[gordo]

what about rover night fire red. or a candy apple red?

[NOVA-KID-93]

i'd like it red (can't dicide what red) with rover/mg grey (hurricane grey?) mirror bases, door handles and tailgate grab handle. not sure whether to colour code bumpers or have those painted in the rover/mg grey aswell.

[stevie-p]

in my opinion dont colour code bumpers have them painted in the rover/mg grey aswell.

yeah, cos i think havin everything same colour can look a bit naff and ott whereas 2 different colours keeps it looking subtle but sporty/classy

yes i will modify mine to the standard 1.2 one thats why my project has not yet lifted im trying to find a 1.6 8v engine and 40's when money lets me

[NOVA-KID-93]

cool, i might eventually go down the route of a engine swap but at min i aint got much funds and got to keep it fairly standard for when i'm old enough to drive so that the insurance is affordable, i'm only 15 so it's cycling or walking everywhere for me.
