Looks spot on mate. like the black painted section in the bumper!

Somethings missing on the back end tho, just don't know what. Doesn't look complete to me.

Looks great :), makes me want to colour code my bumpers,hmm,Lol.

I agree with above, vinyl on the door pillar/boot would look cool.

I like the fuel cap, I had another one on there before was a chrome finnish and look pish. This one is much better.

As for the vinyl, Jules done a photoshop with the boot and B-pillar vinyl on, the B-pillar vinyl looks good, not to sure on the boot vinyl though, removes the smoothness of the rear.

Its a 1.6 8v now, having NOS plummed in over the winter time.

Is it a genuine GSI on a private plate?

I swear to god I am going to open a can of whoop **** on DVLA, where did you get that from? I changed it about a year ago when it had the 1.6 16v in and it showed as a 1.0 8v back then. I then changed it again for the 1.6 8v so why does it still show as a 1.0 8v? The logbook has 1598cc on it?

Its probably off RAC, they do tend to show bo**ocks about the car reg,
my dads old car came up as White colour on RAC, and on the logbook its Blue, and the car was Blue.
I'd just ignore the RAC one tbh.

It dont matter mate as long as your log book shows it's correct thats the importnt thing,so if mr plod says bring your doc to the shop your alright.

lovely car mate, id go lower and swap the wheels, but thats just me

Swap the wheels for what? I was going to go for Softstars and I do have a set of 60mm springs, but I want to be able to drive the car as at the moment its still quite comftable.

No, no and then no :)

As i said, each to their own - As nice as Speedlines are, they are on every other Nova/Corsa...i'd swop them for some Softstars or MO's...
Is it an 8v turbo aswell?

[/i]they are on every other Nova/Corsa...

theyre only common on here as its a Nova forum! Ive only ever (besides car shows) saw one corsa on the street with Allessios and jbobo's nova with them!

Theyre not common at all! :roll:

Adam
18-07-06, 06:50 PM
Most modified novas/corsas i see have Speedlines.

Ben
19-07-06, 05:53 PM
Next season it will be Softstars!!

Tim

speedlines are so popular because they looking stunning on a nicely prepped car, just like this one. i really, really like your car mate very clean and easy on the eye, but i would deffinatly fit the vynal on the door posts and the boot, i think it would set it off a treat.

show us the shopped version and see what people say.

its a beast, well done.

I have some 60mm springs I may fit this weekend after seeing my missus drive her round my cul-de-sac it certainly looks a tad high up.

Anyway, here is the shop, after a second look I think with GSi decals on the boot and the griffin sticker above the Vinyl it might just finnish it off.

the car has a crisp clean look about it and its best staying that way.
