Cheers, Vaughan

GSI Front in grey with red tape would finish that off nicely imo


look's stunning fella

swap wheels with me lol looks good bud agree with the grey Gsi bumper though

Nice car mate:thumb:

Definately no GSi bumper lol Had comments at Billing about being half way there with the wheels

I want to keep it looking SRi'ish

Good to talk to you at Billing mate (about speedlines), love the car I think your right to stick with the spoiler and bumper, but a set of window surrounds would look good imo

I had a wee look round your car again mate, spotted the 5th Speedline (jammy git) lol I also like your back lights as well :thumb:

I quite like the spoiler as I think the wheels make it look more 'fitting' I might fit a splitter to the bumper to make it look lower

Also, GSi surrounds will be on sometime as soon as I can source a set :)

That was the sixth one, lol , the fifth was in the boot, I'll keep my eye open for one for you

Cheers mate, it would do nicely in the boot of mine :)

Pretty sure I saw this at Billing on the Sunday! if I did it looked great!

Aye you likely did mate, either sitting still or driving lol

Cheers, glad you liked it :thumb:

Looks good with speedlines :thumb: really like the wind deflecters :)

Did you have a look at the pm i sent you ?

Aye, seen that Sport at Billing...

Don't have £4k to spend on one atm

Glad you like the wheels :)

:thumb: and again mr vaughan looks cracking fella

car looks stunning vaughan mate..if it was mine i would fit a grey gsi bumper with red stripe but each to their own..

looking good though fella!

Cheers for the comments lads :)

I want to keep it OE but also try and be different from every other Nova

If I had to go GSi bumpers it would be an exact copy of Craig Green's Nova, I'd likely change the spoiler to a GSi item but keep the Speedlines...and I wouldn't want to copy Craig

Another wee update for this thread

Found out that my back beam has cracked round about the passenger spring seat so it'll need to be changed

Got another one there for it so it shouldn't be long until it's on

Pictures of work/progress coming next week :thumb:

Not having much look with rear axles on that thing are you lol

thats what you get for putting big chicks fae cumnock in the back lol

lol Nobody goes in the back! Just my luck I suppose

km/h ??? lol

sweet vaughan. and that 125 is the test at the start i believe

no its just doin its check when you turn ignition on

also i so want to fit a digi back into mine lol ,

Aye that's just it on ignition folks :)

Quite smart looking, well worth all the hassle of wiring etc

Cool, I had a digi dash in my old mk2, was hopelessly inaccurate, but I loved it!

Some people reckon they look tat but I'm a big fan. Look proper retro :thumb:

Very very smart looking imo :thumb: Especially with the original coloured bulbs

Glad you are happy with the dash mate..

looks cool, i want another for my next nova!only if it is a mk2 though!

Vaughan!

Needs a black dash mate.

Hmm not really thought about a black dash if I'm honest

Grey works well with it - If I was going black, I'd go flocked :)

I'm not sure on the logic of grey goes with it?

The whole GSi interior is black?!!
