styling opinoins

[draper]

right hthen, this is gonna cause arguments i know but............wots peoples opinions on styling?? i cant decide on standard looking i.e. white car, black bumpers and gsi skirts etc, subtle i.e. white car, black bumpers and skirts, quad rear lights and smooth boot, small spoiler etc, gsi replica or a bodykit ?? before you all rubbish the kit idea ive decide on something not to mad but different. i seem to change my mind every week/day/hour !!! and this is before i try and decide on an engine !! any opinions would be very helpful !!

[ANDYRACER]

IMO white car black gsi bumper n skirts with black alloys. No flush boot and no quad lights. Subtle is the way forward, if u want a body kit sell up and buy a paxo.

[Ste L]

defo no quad lamps,

erm i like flush boots, well i got one, so im bias

BUT, i also like early spec boot's wth out the grab handle,

[draper]

i think the quad rears with clear lamps look good, i dont really like clear lights as every other novas got em, forgot all about wheels !! was kinda thinkinof leavin standard sr 3 spokes for a real street sleeper look, think after checking the gallery section ive decided on white car and black bumpers, skirts with smooth boot (prob change my mind soon tho)


and id never buy a saxo, rather have a moped, complete with free fast car neon !!

[seano47]

am into gte kit me self love the kits for them with a nice set of wheels on it and also like smoothed boots aswell

[Jack]

I'm all for the subtle look (just ignore my hatch in the features lol)

If I was to have a nova now it'd be Mexico red, GSi bumpers in anthracite (steady Ade) or black, Cesaro or Compomotive Mo wheels, lowered 60mm, Astra Mk4 side repeaters (or the ones I had on my hatch if I can remember what they were from... lol), stipped inside, etc etc

Although I'm still tempted to replicate my old one (http://www.novaload.net/features/viewfeature.php?ref=1020).... those lamps were fun :wink:

[novaco]

what colour is that razorjack??

mexico red??

[Jack]

Its kinda halfway between Flame Red and that Burgundy colour than Nick has... Dan Hipgrave also had it on his 3dr iirc. Std Vauxhall Colour.

HAHA i never knew you drove that chav mobile! :lol: (Although i cant really speak :oops: )

You dont live anywhere near Bristol airport do you? My bro bought some bits off someone with a similar looking nova a while ago-a drivers wing, jap style front bumper and M3 mirrors?? I dont think you're him, but it seems abit coincidental.

[Jack]

HAHA i never knew you drove that chav mobile! :lol: (Although i cant really speak :oops: )
:lol: At least mine was all the same colour! :wink:

Nah, not near bristol airport, I'm way down the bottom of Somerset... I know there is/was another one with the same front bumper round our way tho, but that was blue...

[dunova]

This one was red aswell, but he lived near the airport. So there's 3 nova's that all look the same! 2 red and 1 blue!! Atleast mine was unique! :lol:

Although the new owner is putting it all back to standard and dropping an xe in :cry: *sigh*

[Jack]

Atleast mine was unique! :lol:
There's a reason for that :wink: :lol:

You mean the new owner of yours is putting an XE in it?

You're quick, i'll give ya that :wink:

An XE, how original :roll: Oh well, if he keeps it tidy i suppose it'll be quite a nice motor. It's just i much prefer a tuned up 8v, twin carbs, hmmm

Heheh, I bet hes putting speedlines and a Gsi bodykit on it too :P

go subtle ..

gsi with black / anthrecite bumpers n skirts etc ..

like the recess left in the booth with a smooth off grab handle .. v nice look .. so nice im doin it meself ..

also try somethin a lil different yet subtle ..

im revertin my mk2 sr to a mk1 sr front with the mk1 bumpers all round .. even got the flick out rear lip for the bumper ;) ..

ju changes from the everyday look 8) ..

p.s .. black rims look mint

[Dod]

Go for the Grey Bumpers Skirts and Dark alloys and then paint the car a mad colour, like Mint Green, Corsa Piss Yellow or Bright orande. Quad fronts would look the part and a flush boot would be nice.


Anyone ever see the Porche Mint Green SR in Max Power a pile of years ago, was in with Brents Nova when it was still Blue.

[dooooney]

do what you want mate not what we think follow what you think be differnt dnt follow the croud or we will all look the same except ade no 1 will ever look the same as him and his nova when its done

[DANN1NOVA]

just make a replica of ADE'S. its swwweeeeett
