I had a genuine Pulsar GTIR bonnet to cut the vent out and fit it to a nova bonnet years ago and it just looks far to big and ridiculous!:(

Joff has a GTiR vent on his Nova if you find some pics, however it shares nothing in common with the shape or lines of the Nova in any way atall.

Aye I suspected it miht need a bit of jiggery pokery to get it to fit

It's for a rally car so function is more important than form that said I am a bit of a tart and like things to look nice ;)

In which case you wont want a GTiR scoop then. I meant it dosent 'suit' a Nova not it wont fit. Personally I think you could fit the vent to the lower door skin & it wouldnt look any worse.

The only Nova that vent would look at home on would be a fibreglass Abyss kitted 5 door hatchback wearing replica BMW M3 mirrors & 17" wolfrace wheels. lol
