New panel?
just got my sri badge. it will be replacing the redline sticker.
cheers jim for donating it. i will carefully cut the i off so it says sr. then i will sstick it to the nova under the nova badge. i cant wait to see the outcome.
Take your time dave and make sure you get it straight.
Probably the easiest way is to take some time to get a strip of masking tape on the car in the right position then line the bottom of the badge up just a tiny bit above the strip of tape.
yeah to make it dead straight.
cheers matt. will do.
ok. im loosing the yellow indicators and going for clear 1s. o and clear side repeters too.
the slam panel is too hard to replace. so after a smack with a sledge hammer today its back in shape. ill filler it and paint it.
All good stuff matey.

I took the liberty to include punctuation.
lol kool
ive finished the sri badge. ill post a pic up inna bit.
Any pics of your badge yet Dave?
yes matt. sorry for the delay
heres the sr badge and the steering wheel

the sr badge was off a cavalier sr1 wing. i had to carefully cut and file the i off to leave sr. (cheers jim)
so what do you all think?
Steering wheel looks really good mate. It'll make your nova look a bit more modern inside.
I like the badge too... what colour's your car again?
well... ermm... its... erm... blue
lol sorry... being a bit thick.
lol ok
next step is to get some mesh. but ?29 from halfords is abit dear.
anyone know anywhere to get cheep mash
Ebay should have loads of it on, fairly cheap.
no ebay account.
i need something to do my grill with. or a allready meshed grill
I think you can get some from B&Q a lot cheaper than that.
They sell aluminium sheeting in the same section. You can buy all sorts of colours i think.
You wanna get some fairly strong stuff although it will be difficult to bend but it'll stop pikeys from denting it inwards.
Its worth fixing it on with "no more nails" type glue.. go for the extra strength EVO stick version. This will last years if you but a load all the way round the inside of the grill.
alliminium sheeting
whats that?
sorry im abit useless with b+q
Was going to suggest B&Q but didn't think they did the same type of mesh...
Try something like www.speeding.co.uk or www.dcp-shop.co.uk, their prices should be a little cheaper than halfords. Failing that, get an ebay account :p
o and what is mesh considered as?
landscaping? because theres none on b&q website
They do some packs normally by the arty section where they have fire places and ****.
It should be in the same rack as aluminium sheeting that they do with all sorts of holes stamped out of it and in different colours.
Probably wont be listed on their web site.
Sometimes you can get it in motor accessory supply places that do spares as well.
ok. ive been saving this news for a while
ive bought a donar car
mk1 in red. 1.2 flair. mint con. clean frame and bodywork but must be broken
heres a pic
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h80/x_novadose_x/.jpg
why has i got a mk2 bonnet? that looks like RJ's fav colour - quick hide it!
A
it looks like its had a really cheap badge stuck on.
the plan is.. to gut it inside and out.
compleatley strip it.
come on then. what you all think
How come you've got to break it?
its supposed to be crushed. and on its way to china to make tea leeve holders. but i rescued it. but it will be going eventually
lol shame.
Strip it then fella.
Is it just the interior you need?
no everything
may aswell get it if its all for FREE!!!
lol go for it mate.
will do :D
so what you think some new changes should be?
Go check the VIN plate for the colour code! :D
u dont like it that much do you rj :D
ok next time im down the garage ill give it a look
how bad/good are the chassis rails on the red 1 ?? might be easier to re-shell the blue 1 into it ??
the chassie needs to be melted. i no its a shame but what must be must be
just swap the blue one for the red one lol
change the plates over and tell DVLA you sprayed your car red ?? ;)
and vin plate things, although im sure it isnt legal. lol
