still got a few bits to do like the laguna splitter and a full set of GM mudflaps.

most people will probably say it looks the same as any other nova with speedlines but after driving it home i have remembered why i love novas!!!

Nothing wrong with that, it's a combination that works well which your car proves. Looks very tastefully done. :thumb:

tbh i wouldnt put a laguna splitter on or any splitter for that matter, i think it looks spot on as it is, i think splitters spoil nova gsi bumpers but thats just my opinion

I agree with matt, maybe best to leave it off fella, looks well as it is, I bet its not long before the plates catch the eye of the law either!

I agree with Matt. The splitter is too low for the side skirts and makes the front look too deep.

Looks lovely as it is - dont spoil it!

90mm fella, bought them off someone on here.

as for the plates, they are velcro'd on so i can change them quickly, but the velcro is that strong i bend the bloody plate before it comes off!!

Have you modified the inner arches at all?? Id keep an eye on it as it may be bare shiny metal very soon If no fettling has been done to prevent it or your using spacers, The allesios will be very close in them rear arches with that drop fella! Although it looks great there is a few of us who have had this very problem!

Looks amazingly clean!

Why does your grille not line up with the wing?

Also get a new GSi grille badge to finish it off.

Does look clean as fook, its an example of why a gsi kit and speedlines are so popular.

If it were mine, standard front plate and the original wipers/linkage would be back on :cool:

think thats something to do with the cheap pattern front panel i had fitted. built this thing on apprentice wages so tbh it isnt as good as id like. but im on a decent wage now so more work is planned for winter to bring her up to standard!
