go on to autotintdesign.com and follow "bodykits"-"vauxhall"-"nova"-then its there £130
p.s when i say mk1, as in mk1 nova
Ah right i thought you ment a proper cossie bumper lol
Well imo the full magnam kit would be best. but what is the car for? Any track days ralling? If so why not go for a proper wide arch kit thats a gsi front and rear bumper. Ive got this kit and it looks awsome!

the nova im hoping to get will be rough riding round the island of corfu next year, so i want to make it have some rally looks with some performance aswell,so what do you suggest, any links to decent looking kits?
One sec il get a link to the one ive got and post pics of the full kit as you get it! Its a better kit aswell because its wide arched the front wings just bolt on and are all fiberglass. Good weight saving :D

ok, the ideal kit for me would not have a front bumper with foglight holes, cuz im going to put a couple of spot lights in the grill
Well the one ive got has no holes. the bumper and grill is all in one. With just a hole where the grill is
This is the kit

is there anything else that i should know about?
Depends on what you want to know. Between everyone on the club its not much we cant answer

ok, wheres a good place to get a good full body respray?
whats good for improving at 1.2 engine, since there is no need for a big engine on such a small island! haha
Well for the 1.2 here is a guild that may help

But loads you can get just up to your taste. Then you name in the back/side window. Mud flaps, bonnet pins maybe a roof vent

Either paint them yourself or have them powdercoated
