I final got my car on the road a couple of weeks ago. All i done since the first pics u seen is 3 oz racing Velos alloys, lowered 40mm on springs, piperx induction kit, peco powermaster back box. some pics below. tell me what you lot think good or bad!!!. The worst think about it is that i only have 3 alloys. mates old wheels he handbraked it and it the kirb 6inch chunck out the rim maybe gettin it sorted or wantin spiders. i have 15inch cavvy gsi wheels may put them on.

Looks sound mate, shame about only having 3 OZ's as they look pretty decent.
Future plans sound good. :D

aye ma mate lost it when he handbraked it took a 6 inch chunk out the wheel. I can only take 1 passenger cos they are fiat alloys and they rub at the back but been told they look the bussiness.

the future plans r nice and suttle the way i like it.

looks good mate, not sure if it's just the photos but the paint looks very blotchy if you know what i mean.

wheels look nice tho, suit the car

The big House in the background is a local landmark in my home town (kinneil house) If you have ever heard of it and the small houses round about is in the grounds (kinneil estate).

The "V" grille is on it to make if different from all the other novas i have seen.
