Arch panels are good from imperial. Infact Ive got a drivers (fuel cap side) in my garage spare.

Ive had wings from them & they ended up in the bin after my bodyshop tried to fit them.

Headlights will most likely be bulk sourced Valeo or similar, same as genuine. (guess)

[burgo]

apparently front wings take abit of fettling to get to fit right and arch repair panels you cant go wrong with really

[craig green]

My wings were awful, the wrap around bit under a facelift indicator was actually made up fro a 2nd bit of metal that wouldve needed a lot of filler to sort. Only like that on one side however.

thats sorta y i'm on the hunt for better quality bits 4 the other 1 i bought.......

hopefully that'll b a bit of a project at the latter part of the year:)

[Benn]

they r like gold-dust now here in northern ireland.........


u hardly even see a nova in the scrapyards now down my way......


unless the occasionall 4 door or that...they r few and far between.........


even a year back there would be plenty of novaparts in the 'free adds papers' ..but really not alot now

i'm in no hurry anyway....i'm just sorta looking around at the moment........

i've got a half faced idea of puttin a mk 1 front onto a my 92 nova...and then doin a few tidy mods.instead of going down the same route as most other folk......



i like 2 b different

[burgo]

ive got a mk2 trip which i have converted into a gte with the mk1 front end obviously. its the only way to get a decent shell now

[novamadcars]

[burgo]

I've got 2x pattern brand new wings for sale, want ?40 the pair but they are good quality/reasonable fit.

Genuine wings are only available on the drivers side (o/s). The pass side (n/s) is no longer available/no longer appear on Vaux TIS.

[Benn]

oh right,if you use mig or know of it,search on craig g,his 92 has a mk1 front and looks very cool,

[shy witness]

thanx for the info guys......


as i said..........just on the lookout at the moment and i'll see wot turns up

[kronk10]

Why dont you give onlineautosprort a ring or go on there website and get number cus i purchased a front wing and rear arch repair panel (rear ?18) and front ?35) sounds expensive but they are proper Gm parts with stickers on them to prove etc:thumb:

[craig green]
