does anyone know where you get the metal rear diffusers from think they might be called undertrays? also can you get front ones or is that a custom jobbie?

linky to a pic of the front one

thats a custom jobbie. From scratch. For a nova they all are going to be im afraid.
Only suggestion is get one made for another car and custom that onto the nova..
Such as the one available for a vx220 - see LMF website for pics.

Fronts are called splitters and rears are diffusers! Can be easily made out of alloy or carbon fibre or buy a ready made one for a vx220 and retro fit it!

But if its purely for looks then dont bother, waaste of time imo!;)

easily made?! cripes..

The owner of the red nova in the link has spent some time and effort on making the front and rear aero parts actually work, at least to some degree - its all part of a flat floor set-up too

Its Lee303 off here and mig, put alot of work into it. I think he made them with the thought of if they work then great if not he can change them easily with out much cost! Yeah its all part of a flat floor system which is why its worth it, if you just use the front splitter you may see some gains in front end grip but the rear diffuser should be used with a flat floor design to get the best from it!;)

Yep, very true. Funny how Lee's built for purpose approach has led to a mental 'evolution' nova - look; that im sure many like the look of , let alone any of the benefits.
