Get some proper black door handles and winders... Should be able to find some in a mk1 at the scrappy.
Aye I have the black door handles but getting the originals off is a different story lol
As for the doorcards - I've been told there rare like but there for my car so it doesn't matter if there cut or the likes :)
Cheers for all the comments!
I'm sure i have a pair (black winders) knocking around you can have if you're interested, let me know.
Theres supposed to be a set coming through but I think there from a Corsa
I'll wait until the paint starts coming off these ones then do something about it
Cheers for the help anyway :)
All poverty spec mk1's have black door winders.
I'll keep a look out :)
Thanks for the hints and tips!
aye there right cause im going to have ood door handles and window winders inside my nova.
just read from page 1 i think the corsa gsi rims look good i think would look better spayed grey or black
I want to keep them silver - If anything they will get re-furbed in silver
I'm not a fan of black wheels at all and those wheels wouldn't look good in grey either
The car should be back later this week or next week all painted as well with the spoiler on it :) :)
The Nova should be back to my house by Tuesday or Wednesday next week - Well aslong as its back next week sometime I'm not too bothered
Its been in since Monday and I've had the updates that its all ready for paint and everything is ready to go
It will come back like new but with a Nova Predator spoiler on it
I really can't wait to see it
Couple of minor updates really!
Swapped my spare 4 Corsa GSi wheels for these Mk3 Astra LS alloys:

And my uncle from Ireland sent me over new numberplates at my request, the middle plate is the original one to show the difference in text size:

Vaughan!!
The Nova is now painted thanks to Davie and Drew - Great guys
The spoiler isn't fitted yet as it had just been painted as my dad went down to see the car
Needs a good wash and polish to bring the paint back to the same colour but all will be done soon
Heres the pics my dad got for me:

And one with Davie looking very happy - Probably glad to see the back of it, nearly:

Vaughan!
them wheels have grown on me vaughan, never seen another nova with them on, makes the car unique and easy to distinguish lol.. cant wait to see her at pvs :thumb:
Cheers Dave - Will be good to see them both side by side :)
Looks good bud, still dont like the wheels though lol
I have the Astra ones as well, they could maybe go on
But the Corsa wheels will do for now :)
Cheers anyway lol
I think you should try and get more of the spare one you got, the astra sport steelie. The boy that bought my 2 door saloon off me has them on, looks awesome.
Don't know about that yet - I'll try the Astra LS alloys on it 1st :)
You going to the Total Vauxhall thing at Crail ?
Yeh should be, u?
Aye probably go with the Nova
Up for a mini-meet ? lol
Yep im up for it.

After I spent ages making mini ones for your model!
YOU EVIL SOD!

Vaughan!!
That spoiler looks ace! The back end is cool. Just the wheels letting it down now IMO!
Aye I know lol
I'll have the new ones on after PVS - I want my car and the wee model to be the same on the day :)
looks really smart :) jealous of it lol :)
lol
Aye its coming along now, especially from what it was back about October 07
Next on the agenda is to fit an Astra Mk3 SPi intake system so my Alloy strut-brace can go on :)
Might also pop a wee K&N on it as well ;)
Really like this mate. Im surprised that i like the spoiler. It really suits your motor. What did you use on your bumpers and where did you get that cheeky wee griffin badge from:D
craig
Just bumper gel from the garage down the road lol
The griffin came from the Vauxhall dealer - Well Mark (Novacabrio) sent me it up but it came from a Vauxhall garage all the same :)
Where are you in Scotland mate ??
cool man, looks like im going to kerr and smith in ayr tomorrow. Im in irvine mate.
Ive tried all sorts on my side skirts and front and rear valances on my gte but none seem to work.
lol You should come up and see me - I'm in Cumnock so not too far away
Shame I can't drive yet though...
im sure we can sort something mate. Ill pm you in the next couple of weeks. Keep an eye out on my wip (89 gte). Ive been busy the last couple of months with welding and collecting loads of parts to finish of my interior. Plus fixing loads of bloody leaks:mad: But at least there all sorted now:thumb:
craig
Aye no problem
Be sure to pop in like
Would be good to see another Nova out and about, locally :)
lookin spot on!!
love it with that spoiler! looks different but really cool.:thumb:
will be brilliant to get the novas together..
Aye it will so mate - You need to get yours on the road as soon as :)
