A friend of mine, Davy McClay has been building a Nova for the past year, It was a Red 1.2 Luxe Plus. And has been transformed into this GSI replica... He's used alot of ideas from my car and so they look simaliar...lol An engine swap will happen in the near future, but he's just glad to have the exterior now finished for now!

He doesnt have the internet, but he wants some opinions/suggestions from fellow Car Enthusiasts!

I'd also like to mention that Everything on this car was done by himself except the paint job!

F'king mint!!

The only things I'd do are:
Change the mud flaps for the genuine GM ones (Silver badges on black flaps).
Fit GM headlamp protectors.
Fit headlight washers (like on mine) cos they suit the GSi look brilliantly imo.

But I think it looks superb as it is (Just up my styling street).
:D

Editted cos the interior pics weren't up when I started my reply!!
:oops:

Yeah well smart! Especially like the wheels and the vented wing! It adds a touch of class. Will be good with new engine in. And like everyone else siad, needs a smaller steering wheel!!!
