Ye it will look cool colour coded but be sure to key it up properly and use a decent plastic primer cos when i done mine it went flaky and i had to do the job again, well worth it though! 8)

get a set of gsi bumpers (just the front one needed) - and if you want hastle free work get a body shop to spray them for ya - ?150 tops for respray

You can get GSi bumper (direct replacement) for ?50 2nd hand or a pre primed one (debobbled) for about ?120 (replica) or ?150 (GM)

I think

I know your gonna spend around 10k on it but you could get a Laguna for that or something nice that you can impress your mates with a Proper car.

chill people.
so what do you drive then mr basher that makes you so qualified to judge the efforts of someone else?
can we see a pic of your motor? do you have a motor?
if you don't like nova's why go to all the effort to join a nova site unless you just wanted to waste everyones time by joining and posting useless rubbish on here that will provoke an arguement.
if you don't have anything constructive to say then simple.......don't say it

i think other people will follow my lead on this one - the reason novas are so popular is because they are cheap to buy parts for, easy to work on, loads of interchangable parts for them and a great drivers car (if you doubt this then you must have a go-kart because novas are the best handling car when lowered other than pug 205 GTi (sorry about swearing - lol))
novas are brash, harsh & great fun.
Lagunas on the other hand are wallowy rep car peices of shite or a grandad car - which ever you wish.
