Aslong as you don't have the boot vinyl it looks ok with black / grey bumpers.

Quality :)
well done dave looks really good driving mate
cheers lee n vaughan... nearly as mint as yours now lol
Lovely car, and it must have been a good feeling seeing your effort on the road!
It sounds like mine. I'm sure your dad found out that 4th gear is only good for constant speed, back to 3rd for acceleration lol
yep lol.. he did.. it was still accelerating in 4th at 70 up a big hill aswell lol
Thats good going! They aren't AS slow to 60 as most might think, 70 can be got in a fairly small stretch considering 45 or so bhp.
I always wonder where the 1.0 totally run out of puff, 85?
round that yeah lol.. mabey 100 down a steep hill with wind behind it
looking good dave i can only dream of doing that one day lol
got anymore plans or is it saying how it is for the time being?
nice one dave , my nova hasnt had a mot since august now , thats the longest its never had one for lol i havent drivin the thing since last april :eek:
LOL @ the hard ride comments in the vid lol
Welcome to the world of driving a nova lol
Steering wheel not straight, something ratteling like fook. I love it!
Nice one dave reminds me when my nova first got an MOT when i was 16 after being off the road for 5 years.
Well done mate, no excuses for PVS now :D
LMAO, again, welcome to driving a nova lol lolQuote:

Not genuine but they are exactly the same. Someone off here wanted me to get them a set then backed down because he got some cheapo nasty ones off ebay. Same guy did the ones on a certain blue sri.

http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h8...x/DSC00224.jpg
i was furious.. i told him where to stick them and told him he was dislexic lol

http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h8...DSC00225-1.jpg
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h8...x/DSC00226.jpg
then realised they wernt the right size.. so i ripped thme off.. another ?15 wated :(
you shouldnt have paid for them as they was totally wrong mate
i wouldnt have
agree with raymond, you shouldnt have gave them the money..
well it doesnt really matter that they were made up wrong.. because theyre completley the wrong size lol.. so didnt really matter
anyway got the PROPPER dimensions now.. and giving them to dave at work to give to his dad to make some exact ones up for me (because he works at a sign writers too). so should get them back by the end of the week :thumb:
good luck on getting the stickers sorted mate
honestly i think it looks better without them ?
its good you did that because you probs wont need it driving past again liek that for a long time.. most ppl dont kno what there ca rlooks like when its driving
sarcasm or.....? lolQuote:
