The bug has bitten !

[Joe Richardson]

well i said i wouldn't modify the sr,but the bug has bitten:d

bought some Alessio speedlines off Nick J,couple of weeks back and fitted them today,no center wheel caps on yet but that will be sorted soon:)
Also fitted a magnex exhaust aswell,which looks and sounds better;)

ooooh noes lol it all starts with a harmless set of alloys lol lol

Certainly does lol Actually think my first buy was a set of SR clocks, first thing over £40 was alloys though lol

[twistysnovagte]

looks very nice mate,never realy been a fan of the three spokes,although it looks nice to have it original,the three spokes just dont suit it imho.
looks the part with the speedlines on matches the bottom half too

[Spudly]

Now i was thinking oh dear you silly boy not another one on speedlines, but however, given the dark colour which matches your SR vinyl i say that definately works, needs about -30mm lowering though:thumb:

[Simon 1867]

Really like it matey. I tend to agree with what people have said, the speedlines in that colour suit.

Dont do to much more tho, keep it looking ace

It's already lowered spud,anymore and it would scrub on the arches:(

Time to get the hammer out lol

[wwmnw]

Time to get the hammer out lol

I hate that method, my rear arches are looking funky after that :cry:

[twistysnovagte]

ffs just dont cut them(i know you probaly wont but just have to say it),i thought all was well when i cut mine,but three years down the line, they've started to bubble(rust) teel a lie one side has the other is ok(for now):(

[Plug]

get the arches rolled propperly folding the lip back on its self and sealed well.

Then drop it a little bit more as it does look like its on mini stilts lol.

Looks ace thou :thumb:

[brainsnova]

when are you straightening that rear number plate its doing my head in lol

[SRimon]

Wheels would look better in Silver.

My speedlines rubbed like hell on my mk1, front and rear arch lips need fully rolling.

[AlexW]

when are you straightening that rear number plate its doing my head in lol

+1. First mod that should have been done lol.

Looks good. Dont look lowerd at all lol

[Joe Richardson]

[rallyingace]

Looking nice......takes me back to when I had my SR.....

[MattBrown]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

You are ruining the PORN that was your sr!

Buy another nova if your gonna gay it up!

[jpga]

looks cool i reckon your car mate do as you please :) and as jimbo said its stilting a little bit !!

[Joe Richardson]

cheers all for the comments :thumb:

It doesn't look hi,when you see it,looks just right :)

[Count Vaux Alot]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Same.

[Edd]

Wheels are too big for a sr IMO

[dave.gsi]

it looks like its on stilts, get it lowered by another 20ish front and 35ish back and it would sit right.

and because its white (which is the best nova colour of ever :d ) it needs clear front indicators, ignore the standard lovers, they're all homo's..white cars need white indicators

FACT :thumb:

[jpga]

what tires are they ??

[Paul]

I agree with dave.

Looks 10 times better than the three spokes

[DAFTJOHN]

Very smart, good choice

[novalicous]

Looks spot on :thumb:

[mrT]

looks well good mate just the tyre walls look a bit to big,or its just cause im still wasted lol

[Nick J]

Looks very well Joe in my opinion...... And in all honesty guys it doesnt sit that high when you see it in the flesh! As I thought the grey colour of the allesios does go very well with the bottom half vinyl as they did on mine. All in all a very nice addition to a good looking car. ;)

Nick.

[John]

Looks well! Please fit that exhaust properly though!

Imho i'd lose the too modern aero style wiper blades. They spoil it!

exhaust is fitted properlylol

I like the wipers,much better than old styles ones :cool:

cheers Nick:thumb:

[vaughanmc]

Does look good mate, wheels would be a lot nicer in silver I reckon

Get out and use it now :thumb:

Lol, it doesn't sit in the bumper cut out very well. I know it's personal preference over the wipers, i just don't think they suit older cars imo.

[Joe Richardson]

It looks like it in the pic mate,it is fitted properly lol there is only a hanger holding it in place so how can it not be fitted properly lol

[Joe Richardson]

Get out and use it now :thumb:

I would disagree,silver wouldn't look half as good,due to the car been white and grey at the bottom !

lol,it's off the road for winter now mate so wont be using it much:thumb:

[vaughanmc]

Terrible mate, get it out and use it

Mine's just had the Waxoyl treatment all underneath it, the back of the sills, inner arches etc etc etc :thumb:

mine is waxoyld aswell but there is no way it will see the roads this winter,its hardwork to keep on top of them every week when there used,so it will be laid up:thumb:

[vaughanmc]

Fair play mate...I'd get it out and use it as much as possible

[Nick J]

As I said to you allesios in silver on your car would stand out more... with them in grey and matching the lower half of the car I feel they tone it down and look more subtle/fitting etc. As we all know the most subtle novas seem to always be the best. ;)

[Tim-SR]

looks good that does mate, i didnt really think they would look that good tbh, because the pictures on facebook looked like they were a different colour, but now i seen them on the car then do look well mate! cant wait to see this next year!
