Only gonna be used as a daily, but runs sweet as feck!!

Gonna remove the door trim and vinyl, and clean it up.
Paint the door handles, boot handle and wheels black
Fit GSi bumpers and skirts painted black
Re- Slat the grille (Poss paint it black)
Poss paint mirrors and spoiler black!
Slam it
And drive it to work and back and keep it clean!!!

Any body good at photoshop that can do the above list???
Cheers

NOOOOOO do not ruin it. Keep the vinyl on, dont paint the bumpers, spoiler and mirrors black.

Just get it back to mint, rare seeing a mint breeze blue SR!

Riggy, its well tidy mate, very very little rust!

Unfortunately keith, on further inspection, theres a little tin worm beneath the vinyl so im gonna get it off to treat it and get it sorted!!

Ive decided against against black, and im gonna go for anthracite/hurricaine grey, But not the mirrors or spoiler!

GSi bumpers, door handles, boot trim and wheels!!

I agree with Keith on the vynal! Not many vynalled novas about. If you have to repair the doors or lower 1/4's try and replace it. Its a nice motor!

Any chance of a few more shots of the centre console corsa clock conversion - looks interesting...

WHY OH WHY do people take the stereo out where it belongs and stick it there and then blank the original up, it makes NO sense WHATSOEVER

Nice car though, cheap enough with the tax and test!
