IM LOOKIN FIR A FUSION BODYKIT BUT CANT FIND ANY SIDE SKIRTS! WHATS LOOKS GOOD WITH THEM? (ANY PICTURES?)
ARE THE FUSION BUMPERS EASY TO FIT?

There not easy to fit, they will need cutting to the shapee of the front of the nova and you will need to find a way of bolting the bumper to the car.

For sideskirts i would get a set of novadose ones but its up to you mate.

thes kits are the same kit.. just sold under differnt names..like ben says the fronts a bitch to fit my mates got it on his gsi and the guy who fited it had to do loads of cuting to fit it! not an easy one for DIY...the front bumper is nice and can look really good on the right car with the right mod to complement it,like a good set of wheels, ect..the rear bumper is allso not easy to fix,both bumpers need bolts and they must be bonded on with fiber glass bonding , and you allso need to fit your clips on for the side for the wing fixing point's. i personally dont think the rear bumper looks very good its got these bits that turen up on the bottom either side,an they look crap,but you could mod it to get rid of them...the novadose skirts look good with this kit that would be my choice,or Le cat skirts look good..hope this is of some use for ya mate.PS check out bad boys body styling... :)

I guess it depends what the rest of the kit is, as i liked that bumper more than any other available 'off-the shelf' as it's low (so the level matches that of front bumper and skirts, if you're into kits), looks better than one's with valances fitted to (even if they were flushed, as they still dont ever look like 'part and parcel') seperately and in my case, i especially liked 'the bits that turn up on the bottom at each side', as they mimick the 'flicks' on the bottom corners of the Front bumper i fitted and the 'flcks' on the one end of the skirts. So all parts look like they were a complete set, despite being a mix and match combination.

the rear bumper is quite possibly the worst rear bumper in the history of mankind :roll:

the days of 19s and ppl going for the 20s and 22s seem to have long gone, the big rim craze in nova terms has flipped back to 15s and 16s with the odd "can i get 17s with ET15 on and how" qn coming up.

The exception being dan paynes, but that needs 19s not to scrub from what i remember :D

I have fitted the fusion back and in my opinion at first i didnt like it but when i put the smooth boot on it looked wicked there isnt another nova round where i live with it and there alot of novas all with nova dose kits on, i put the quad conversion side skirts onwhich look good as well but a pain to fit. At the end of the day its upto you if you like the look of somehting get it
