thats ace, proper sat on its arse. In terms of the poll, defo lose the bump strips, but as for the wheels, the whites just pinch it in my opinion, altho the anthracites looks equally tasty.
James
it would look great with out the rub strips and with black wheels, dtm mirrors would look good
i think the results of the poll say it all really mate. got to be black
get your wheels black and id deffo get tht front bumper. i like the red novas its looks good with them wheels looks very tidy
yep, black wheels, no rubbing strips and then that under bumper....would look even better..... :wink:
Dark rims and lose the strips yes, but don't do anything with the bumper, looks excellent as it is with retro chic. I'm quite choosy with what I like on Nova's and I like the simplicity of it.

I was gonna suggest you get rid of the rubbing strips when i saw u at donington, but i kept my mouth shut cos its ur car and u can do what u like. Main reason being think of the weight u'll save by getting shot of them!! as for the wheels its gotta be black better for radiating heat away from the brakes plus after a hard day on track they don't look mingin :lol:

:twisted:
It does look better with the sidestrips off, but looks a little plain. Do what you think looks best mate, although the dark wheels look awesome IMO
olly, i did think about how much they would weigh. they are solid chunks of plastic, and every little helps.
the next question is should i go black or anthracite
