sportex full system should work a treat, 98% of aftermarket systems shoot off to the side. asa_james is selling one.

[davidfox280585]

i think as it is just nice and low,and maybe some dealer decals kinda like nova sport ones,no spoiler,black bumpers too

[Rickyb]

hmm i never thought of serounds
and il be finding asa now then :D

hmm i dont really share the same inthusiasum could someone do a photoshop please the sport decal on my nova. i think it would be like ice cream on toast really but worth an ask.

dont use the full side pieces just the rear bits and instead of the yellow have white,with white speedlines to tie in with the theme red calipers showing through:cool:

[Rickyb]

oh you mean the 3 stripes? might be a good idea.

[davidfox280585]

yes but imagine it in your head slammed on whit speedlines with the decals:)

[LEWI007]

Theres not much you can do to make it differen cos its all been done before.

When you buy a backbox just make sure its a MK2 One and they exit at a straight angle.

[Rickyb]

i understand that its all been done before but im just trying to make it nice withoout going gsi bumpers, skirts etc because thats what everyone seems to have in a mk2.
i think il just make it as clean as i can paint the std bumpers door handels mirrors and boot plinth all red you dont see that oftern but thats because itll probably look crap.
cheers for the comments people

[waynes sri]

ido likethe nova above to be fair...but if i was you mate with yours see when i did my SRI last year i wanted it like it should be but with my own touchers lol so i know what u mean so id say get the red all done some speedlines in either white or a dark grey slammed gsi spoiler and do the bumpers in a matt grey like the bottem half of my SRI.and a set of mudflaps cant forget them lol:thumb:

[steviegsi]

I don't know how, but the chequered bonnet is absolutely awesome! Suits your car down to the ground, not sure it would work on any other one!

[mk1nova_rich]

just work on bringing the plastics back to life with some grey paint, then a nice drop on white wheels will look smart :thumb:

[Liam]

Here you are mate, done a few Photoshops for you, Anything else you want or changed just ask. I changed the colour, added your wheels, lowered it, treated the rust, blacked your bumper more and played with the Sport decals. Hope you like it :thumb:
