Very nice mate. Like the colour but wheels :? . In my opinion they're too common on Nova's. They suit it excellently, but they're not for me. Other than that very nice car.

Chris, need to get together to finish off your interior. I've only been able to find SR rear doorcards...Gsi ones are rare to find and really expensive from the dealers :(

If i can change windows Chris you can ;)

Even if Cp did do the rear ones :oops:

Na seriously tho its quite easy, the front ones are a bit of a bitch but apart from that all you need is a thing screw driver and a bit of effort. Its better with 2 people doing it tho, one sealing the window inside and one pushing the window from the outside. :D

Ok jim. Ill msg u on msn when im at home and we can sort summat out.
Wanna get it cracked soon as im thinking about a mag feature.
as for gsi quarter cards ill see what i can do m8.


Breeny. as for the windows its not to much the changing em that bothers me. Just would make life easier with 2 people doing it.
Plus cp having messed with the perspex will know the score with any problems that arise.

dont buy gsi rear quarters from vauxhall there 150 for the pair but the passenger side ones are crap quality, there not black vynil, they are white vynil painted black (badly) there matt finish and have no pattern/grain to them! i orderd a set and sent the dodgy one back 5 times to try and get a good one, all came back the same.

in the end i used spray to paint a set of mint sr ones i had, came up brilliantly!

cars looking mint chris, look forward to seeing it featured!

Chris is having them recovered in fabric, not painting them so it doesn't matter what the current finish is like as it won't be seen. The only reason I mentioned the Gsi ones is that they come right up to the window, whereas the SR ones have a gap between the top of the door card and the window so you can see the paintwork.

?150 is stupid money, especially as these parts are now discontinued, you'd have thought Vauxhall would want to sell this stuff off cheaply to get rid of it :?

ah right, in that case i see that the finish wouldnt be important.

ive been buying mostly new vauxhall parts for my car and the cost is unreal! a set of floor carpets is ?250. i think the under dash shelf were ?25 each and sunvisors are ?33 each. :O crazy!

Jim,
The GSI wasn't the only one to have full height rear 1/4 cards, the Merit + had them, and I think a few other special models, did the Flair have them aswell?
