Buy above chav rimmage and sell me comps for 50 quid?

Seriously though, keep the comps...rest are horrible imo

EDIT : Ah....above read.....none, go halfrauds and buy some Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s, Imo would look awesome on your coupe.

On a side note, did you take that body shell to a paint shop or spray it yourself. Been wanting to paint mine that colour and can't decide wether to invest in a propper job, or to have a bash myself (have compressor and my dad sells spray guns, so we know a little bit :D)

22-08-09, 11:04 AM
Those arches could look very cool. Always thought about some Mk2 Forest arches. Square enough to suite a nova, suprised I've never seen some fitted.

22-08-09, 11:26 AM
If you put thoses arches on ... i will give you a man hug when i see you.
and tbh slabs etc are to common i think it would ruin what you have done to yours get something differant deep dish splits or 1 peice.
maybe some work wheels?
how much are you looking to spend on a set?

Lmfbo @ jack posting how the old loon used to be...

What you need is a set of......

http://www.imagewheels.co.uk/wheels/small%20billet/billet_19.jpg

or

http://www.imagewheels.co.uk/wheels/small%20billet/billet_26_18in.jpg

But.... these are worth twice maybe three times the value of the nova Oh and it has to have a proper cool colour to work.

Borbets are a good wheel, but certainly done to death and iirc there is no ****ing chance in this world your fitting 9" rears on the loon. Saying that.... :) it could be done.

It would also need slamming on its farking ringhole for it to look right.

stevie-p
22-08-09, 04:08 PM
same with the image wheels and yes they are farking expensive and i no lol

Rexy
22-08-09, 04:10 PM
well, if thats the look your going for i guess its the sorta money you have to pay... And the workmanship on them is pretty good just check them before you sign for them lol.

stevie-p
22-08-09, 04:12 PM
the workmanship is 110% they are by far one of the best !

22-08-09, 04:54 PM

Comps are too hardcore IMO, as nice as they are.

None of the other options really suit it either.

The Simps
22-08-09, 11:33 PM
coupes are difficult because it takes a big drop to make them look good and fill the arches, especially if you're going euro.

I always wanted to do a rear wide arched nova on Azev A's.

The Simps
22-08-09, 11:34 PM
someone on here i think is selling some rare 17" 4 stud speedline mistrals - they would look mint!!!

Graeme
22-08-09, 11:39 PM
Agree with the Simps but there not cheap @ £550

22-08-09, 11:56 PM
I've got a set of mistrals in 5 stud sat in the workshop that are a mates. I might try them on the nova for size if I get time tomorrow.
