Still to get:

New rear bumper, new skirts (both a lot bigger so that the car is all on one level seeing as the front bumper is so low..), private number plate, flush boot and 17s 8)

Oh yeah and I hate the wing mirrors so they are coming off and standard nov ones going on

Also the second pic is really old.. no more stickers on it :lol: :lol:

[scott.parker]

Not bad would look better if you replace that front bumper with say a bat motorsport 2 bumper,this would work out cheaper then buying new side skirts and rear bumper,adn i allso think it would look better,as i thnik them jap/kingdom type front dont look right,they stick out too far..

Anyway wellcome to nl and enjoy :D

[Chelle]

I was not keen on the front bumper to start with but its grown on me and is different so have decided to keep it.

I bloody hate seeing cars with big front bumpers then tiny rear bumper or other way round I like everything to be equal and level :-D

But the biggest bumper I can find that'll make the car level is the fusion one.. so was considering gettin that and then gettin bigger skirts and then that way because it'll all be soooo low then I'd get the 17s as well and it would look pretty mental

[Fester]

Tasty motor! Wasn't this Mark D's? I think he had the other Kingdom bumper on it if I remember right.

how much will ya be after for the one's that are on the car at the mo?

car looks mint, but please dont fit a fusion rear to it as it will definately not go with the jap styled front have you thought of a magnum rear?

i think that'd look a lot better than the roundness of the fusion.

[scott.parker]

Well i know they have started to make this one now for the nova,(sorry about useing some ones sig,it just made it easyer) :lol:

http://www.stuartbrooks.co.uk/images/steph/sig.jpg

should look good.

[Jules]

That would look so sweet with a colour coded GSi bumper on those wheels.

That would look so sweet with a colour coded GSi bumper on those wheels.

Well it's true mate but i dont think she is going to.

Oh and if she had some black mulltispoke alloys it would look like jim's :P

heres a pic of the nova one scott.

tis the ultimate-velocity one, id quite like the front bumper out of the kit for my kitted beast as its the only one thatll go with the rear bumper i bought off Al.

[Riggy]

car looks nice

welcome to NL :D

[scott.parker]

See if (i say if cus im not) if i was going to do another kitted nova that rear and my old fron would made a nice nova kit,in a big bumper jap style kindda way,lol

But then i have out grown the kitted nova's,so it's not going to happen.. :D

I would rather waste my money on the engine,and perfomance..

scott

[Col_Mk1]

nice car

[Glytch]

Its a nice car Chelle, vary tasty.
I agree that the BAT one is better but urs has that ggrrrrrr look.
think you should paint the calipers black as well, the red ones stick out like a sore thumb.
If you some performance stuff under there and want to show them off and therfore have to paint them then id go with silver.

[krobinson]

Put a GSI front on, and it would be perfect..

Then get some nice pics of you semi naked over the bonnet ;)

[Nick]

Awaits broody's post....

Expect to see your inbox full of PM's soon !

I too agree that it would look very nice with a GSi kit, Maybe even lower... -80mm ?

but if you like that jap front bumper, then you may as well do the rest of the car to match !

[~~joycey~~]

i'd stick with a fusion back bumper


oh and welcome to NL :lol:

[Barn]

car looks really nice

well mean in black...with the tints etc

the plans sound good too

:+: :)

[Chelle]

Fester - I bought the car off my mate Ben, he had it 2 years

5_door - The magnum rear is not bad like but i still think it'll be too small, maybe it might be big enough with my splitter?
P.S I'd sell the mirrors for a tenner or a fiver if I was given standard mirrors for them as well

I had an idea of gettin other skirts blended into the ones i already have?! If I get a really big rear bumper. That way it'll look mega low it'll be mean as fcuk

I think the gsi bodykit is a bit plain, its nice, but i like the whole mean GRRR look lol oh and I HATE black alloys with a passion

[a11ova]

Looks well nice but agree it needs a new back bumper! Not too sure what i would go with tho. As for wheels and suspension, i would go for a set avo coilovers and a nice set shadow chrome rims with skinny as **** rubber

:twisted: :twisted:

[gaz_nofx46]

It does look ok, but i'm really not into the whole oversized bumper kind of thing.

When you look at the car from the side, it certainly dosn't make the bumper blend into the whole car.

Obviously you like your bodykits, but don't you think the car would have an all over 'smoother' feel with a GSi kit? Even the Abyss bumpers still make the car look smoother.

[Chelle]

Well I REALLY like the fusion front bumper I was considering just getting that and the fusion rear as well but not sure I'd miss the edgy look that the car has now and would probably not be happy with it anymore though.. so I've to be careful what I do!!

The only thing I dont like about the front bumper is that its not been fitted very well, if it had been then it would look much better

Ah fook knows lol I like that front bumper its cool its a little bit different and if I got a different one the car would just blend in with everyone elses and I'd hate that

So the bumpers staying and I'm just gonna have to match the rest of the car by gettin bigger skirts and rear :D

[Chelle]

I am considering selling her though I've got to admit. Cause I could have a 2yr old car for the same insurance lol

I'd miss her so much though cause she's great

[Ben]

Hello and welcome.

your car goes against everything i like about Nova's.

[Fester]

Feature Link (http://www.novaload.net/features/viewfeature.php?ref=370)

Was sure I remembered it! Saw it a few years back in the North East, Mark put loads into it, still looking good.

[Chelle]

That's a shame :lol:

Each to there own and all that 8)

[Nick]

in a way, the fact that the bumper is SOOO extreme, kinda makes it fit in.

I hate those kits that are just evo bumpers or something, they kinda fit, but you can tell it's not meant to be. It's like the owners have tried to make it look like part of the car, when it's blatently not.

At least with this bumper, it looks nothing like the car, and it isn't trying to fit in. It's just sitting there on it's big fat arse.

if you kitted it up like that, and stuck my rims on, even lower, and then kept everything else subtle i think it'd look kinda good....

still better with a GSi kit tho !

[Mel]

Well. Love the colour, but sorry, hate the front bumper.

Keep it simple..oh.. and mk1 it! :lol:


Welcome to the site btw. Mk1's are the future! :wink:

[epo]

how do and welcome

imo the fusion rear bumper is the most worst looking bumper ive ever seen

id rather have one made out of cardboard than that but each to his own

[novalew]

i like your car but then again i would

Nice to meet u anyhow

Have fun modifying 8) 8)

P.S I'd sell the mirrors for a tenner or a fiver if I was given standard mirrors for them as well

nice1 jus gimme a pm when your up for sellin em and ill see if i've got any standard mirrors knockin about. (i think i have a standard plasticy grey coloured pair and some matt black ones somewhere lol) :+:

[Jim]

Hell, welcome to the site.

Until you get some large wheels, a rear bumper and some side skirts, that front bumper is always going to look out of place in my opinion.

If you're going to sell it, then dont bother spending any more money on it.

Jim

P.S.

I HATE black alloys with a passion

Like you say, each to their own :P

[Chelle]

Well you can have more than just the mirrors lol you can have the whole car cause I am selling

Want a new car, I'll miss it though, great car :cry:

[Nick]

hmm that pic makes u look like britney !

sorry i just had to post it.

how much you selling it for ?

[Chelle]

ha ha that's the second time I've been told I look like Britney in that pic!
I'll post up another pic at some point and show you I don't look like her :P

[Chelle]

Cause I like the car too much and I'd HATE to see someone else with it

[*novadose*]

second worst thing in that world that, jealous women. second only to period blood :|

PLEASE get a GSi bumper, smooth it off and colour code it, the type K bumper is poo! Other than that it's spot on.....

[joeontherun]

what a nice nova curently doing mines up hope the finishing product looks nice like that tops ;)

my front bumper changed now like yours and got my interier leatherd out but i like the way that front bumper sticks out and says HELLO!!! lol

[Nova-Flair]

Tasty motor! Wasn't this Mark D's?

[Chelle]

Doesn't mean I'm jealous, the boy who sold it to me didn't want to see it go!!

Lots of people aren't going to be happy about selling their car and seeing someone else drive it - doesn't mean they're jealous! They just miss something that they liked!!

Here's some advice dude if you don't like "period blood" then tell the girl to go get the injection and then she'll never get periods/period pains/pmt ever again :D

No, I'm keeping the front bumper and have decided on the fusion rear - which I know everyone hates - and then gettin big skirts 8)

:twisted: :twisted: (sorry denny couldn't ressist)

[Mike.]

welcome to nl, nice car but i'm not to sure about the front bumper

but hey its your car and this is my opinion :)

[GT-Dub]

Again, I like the Front Bumper But the rest of the car isnt too my liking...

:lol:

[probert_nova]

i bought the fusion rear about a year ago coz i liked the style of bumber, but i reckon when its fitted it just doesn't fit the squarenes of the car. iv'e now bought the ultimate velocicty rear, same style but more square.

heres a pic of my fusion rear bumper now

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/probert_nova/000_0001.jpg

i had to chop it up to help fit the new bumper :D

heres a pic of my car with the uv bumper on

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/probert_nova/novarearcentral.jpg

[Nick]

expect to have to fettle with it a lot, they dont fit too well! 8)

will look well sweet tho, will complement the front nicely!

[Chelle]

Yeah I noticed on that pic once I took a second look that it was a bit funny on the car but we'll see!! The fusion one seems to fit nicer?

Fook knows ha ha

[rednova]

hi - im sure my mate used to own that car before the previous owner - has it got 3 rear headrests?

phil

newcastle

[probert_nova]

the bumper isnt fixed to anything in the pic

i started fitting the bumper today and its not as bad a fit as i thought.

a guy on here called rob fitted one

http://www.novaload.net/features/viewfeature.php?ref=2094

he's also put a guide in the styling forum under ultimate velocity, on how to fit it.

the fusion bumper i had came with fittings but i didn't think it was a brilliant fit (seemed to be on the pi*s).

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/probert_nova/000_0026.jpg

jus my opinion

[a11ova]

i know rob, he lives round the corner from me. He's at uni now. Heard he sold his nova tho :? not sure for definate tho 8)
