The red nova in the latest issue of Total Vauxhall has carbon fibre doors on it. Im fed up of having rusty doors and want some for my nova, but the stupid magazine didnt bother mentioning where the guy got them from. Anyone have any idea where i can buy some?
thanks.

Most likely from colin smith of http://www.novarally.co.uk/, however, he doesn't seem to be about any more, and I believe he sold up everything.

Be prepared to pay a lot for them.

he paid a lot for them and hes on mig as region17

if your fed up of rusty doors then get decent oens and treat them right, its quite easy to do.

Are they the doors that the guy has to cable tie to his cage when he intends to go quick because they bend out?

I belive your talking about Lee Hearsey's of the PVG,if so yes he ahs to clip/atach the inside of the door to the cage as they gap a lot.

Here is his car.

if they cost anything less than 500 a pair then they will work out cheaper than news ones from vauxhall

Or.... you could find a set of decent doors from a scrappers for a lot less and treat them/cut them to save weight.

Just a thought, It might not be anywhere near as light as carbon but u could save a few ??? and lbs.
