Don't forget the exhaust.

The number plate reminds me of shell suits and the likes. I love retro stuff but not it this case.

Each to their own I guess.

I would get a numberplate with standard lettering too, any other font always looks lame. Definitly ditch those eyebrows as soon as posssible, and are those cable ties I see holding your grill on!
Looks nice and rust free though, and those clear rear lights really do suit the colour of the car.

I've never liked the look of a jap style can on a nova tbh.

The first time I ever saw number plates with that style font it was in the 90s, on XR3i's

yhea i need to adress the issue of the cableties lol i braught it basically as it is and work 5 12 hour nites a week so times pretty limited. im quite pleased as it only failed on a wheel bearing and brake hose and the mot guy said its completley rot free:thumb:

what's with the plate recess in the boot? is it me or is it deeper?

anyway, the car isnt to my taste. quite a few things i wouldnt of chosen but it's your car and it's quite tidy really. any more plans?

What about one of those funky gun things, body shops use them. It spot welds a short rod to the bodywork and you attach a small slide hammer and pull the dent out. Could be expensive though as it'll probobly need a spray afterwards.

Recess is totally different to standard, higher up slightly and also the standard one is recessed all the way to the bottom, kinda like a 3 sided box.

you really shouldnt let peoples opinions bother you tbh. i love doing things that people hate, makes me want to do things even more lol

you have also got to realise that this forum is for enthusiasts and we have some of the cleanest novas in the country on here. just because your car might not be the tidiest or nicest nova on here doesnt mean it isnt good enough for outside the internet world. as i said, it looks clean, well apart from the dent :thumb:
