Skirts and Cesaros will make it look like all other Novas. Keep the bump strips defo! Preferred the grey bumpers too but a change is always good, shame there's nothing to fill that big cutout though...

Re fit un-painted bumpers then get the lower half of car vinyl-ed in a dark grey colour.

Put some modified GSi/GTE skirts on, straight sections with no fin, keep the side mouldings & return to grey bumpers, it'll look cool.

The top 2 pics look by far the best.

i might just wag the mesh over black then i wont be as obvious

and i wanna loose the strips and fit skirts as i think they will look better with these bumpers

where as the strips looked good with the old bumpers because the red strip ran all round the car

2nd one for me fella looks nice both ways but I prefer the colour coding with skirts and a cage.
If you do the wheels white paint the cage white too IMO it will look mint :)

please plough your own furrow.... we all have our opinion on what makes our perfect nova...... get the photos printed off & get the marker pens out.... it could save you a heap of money.

I'd loose the rubbing strips and fit some skirts now you've made the change to coloured bumpers, reminds me of my last one when I sold it. I'd also paint the front panel black with the bumper being meshed

I did prefer it with the black bumpers, but the coloured ones arent that bad, the bump strips dont look as good with the cloured bumpers.

Put a big oil cooler in the front bumper, and maybe change the wheels.

Agree with Spudly, looked really good in the first picture with the black bumpers and the bump strips. Could just be the fact it looks pink though.
