nice nova but why does left side have wheels at different angle?

i was thinking that...

in the first pic the camber looks a little dodgy...

like said alot of work but too low...but if its got air bags like you say it should be fine...

the arches are a pretty close match for mine - magnum motorsport me thinks...

Paul
03-01-08, 03:40 PM
I dont hate it!

In fact dare I say it, i think it all looks quite good as a whole.

Credit where credit is due, its not just slapped together, and IMO it's gonna look quite smart once its done!

Keep it up, and keep us updated!

that one crazy feckin Nova - love the doors!

what rear bumper you using?

The only bit I'm not sure about is the front bumper...just seems a little too big - although the paint may pull it all together - usually does!

10/10 though

DW-Nova
27-03-08, 10:07 PM
Looking amazing mate, my only one suggestion would be too get rid of the front indicators, otherwise looking absolutley mint.

Not a big fan of bodykits in my old age but this is one that has really court my eye and will be a top SHOW car 100% when it's finished as am sure you wont be using it as your every day drive ?

Keep up the good work and I look foward to seeing it at PV this year ?

yeah nice car mate will look the bollox when done, just wondering what offset and width ya using on the wheels, got the same kit but dunno what size wheels to get and that sizing you have fits the front just nice.

top job tho, keep it up.
