they stopped making novas long before people started thinking that race car looky likey splitters might be a good idea on a car..

i'd say make it from plyboard or mdf.

the splitter is still in development only done one track day with it. will be joininging it to a flat floor and diffuser like lee303's of migweb.

its currently made out of metal but im looking into making it outta fiberglass and having brake ducts in there aswell like btcc style ones.

the front half looks like this off there car atm,excuse the dirty stain mark.

Chap from my car club with a couple of ex german touring car M3's. Ill see him tomorrow morning anyway so can ask him what price he'll part at (be cheaper then TCS as hes not used either car for about 5 years+)

if you could mate and pm me. i think the m3 ones may suit and fit better to the box shape bumper. the TCS ones seem to be very curved and for that price i dont wanna take a gamble and it be no where near fitting.

yep connor thats it, in total vauxhall this month mate if you wanna have a look

Price talk to me.

Looks hardcore, any measurements looks quite wide.

Dunno on price. Haven't got around to advertising it yet as it's at a mates in Hereford. Was thinking around £200, but that was with the idea that it would be a bolt on part for someone!

I can ask him for dimensions, but this may give you an idea

Another ex-works item I had years ago. Both for the same chassis, just the silver one is a later one, more developed etc.

More pics of the red one here (http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v698/ManorQuay/Random/).

measurements would be great mate. im thinking if i cut the bottom of the gsi bumper off i could recess it in to it somehow. would need to offer it up and have a look.
