Priming job looks good.
Dont get halfords for rattle cans, there like ?6 a go.
?3 in a motor factors,Lol.
lol, cheers for the tip there
well today when i got into work i started by sanding down the primer with wet and dry paper, took about 20 mins
then had a hour break lol
then i went to my local motor factors and got some glacier white spray paint, only ?3! bargin
got back to the garage and started to spray, got 1 runoff on the drivers mirror, so sanded that down and started again.
then after afew layers of paint and a while to dry, they were ready, the passenger side one went on easy but the drivers took abit of wriggling, anyway im extreamly happy with the result, it now looks like a sr.

well yesterday i measured the distande between the front wheen tyre and the arch, it works out at 7cm!! so will defonatley be dropping it 60 on the front, but i need to sort all my stuff out in my boot, ive got a peco exhaust, 2 gsi spoilers, various clocks, loads of cleaning stuff and large k&n's, so ill have to chuck loads of parts next week, or store them somewhere

very happy ith the result, and think they look brilliant
what do you think? now i can swap back whenever i feel like a change, they only show 22498 aswell
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h8...x/DSC00285.jpg
You swapped just the faces?
Should i just swapped the whole speedo/tacho like I said,Lol. As that way means you haven't got to get the speedo needle off etc.
nope, i undid the 2 screws on the back of the speedo and the 3 nuts on the rev counter, and just swapped them around
well as you all have seen ive had some mk1 sr rainbow seats delivered (cheers gra) cant complain for ?40 inc delivery, although the bolster has had a shoddy reapir dome, so might cut away and re, blend it in before i fit them
anyway not much prigress this weekend, just ended up seeing how quick i could get it over 100 yards ,put my gsi/sr clocks in and took delivery of the seats, couldnt fit the seats as lew had taken the sr rollers off, that adapts to make them fit to the floor , so hopefully ive sourced a set at the local scrappers
anyway. some pics of the clocks and of the seats, the old clocks said i had 1/4 of a tank/ now i have 3/4, im well chuffed
also when gra delivered the seats, he took me for a wee spin in his, god it shifts for a 1.4, just needs afew tidying up bits here and there, although he said mine was "bloody minter that dave"

mine and big gra's nova (my pics lol)

Yours will look much better dropped 60mm :)
Tis very tidy.
i kniw, im hopefully going to find a 2nd hand kit at pv, and mabey some gsi skirts and a fog euro cluster
i might have some gmax fronts with 60mm drop and some rear spax shocks for sale soon dave :thumb:
cool, fancy bringing them to pv? as ill have them off you, them ive just got to find 60mm rears lol
i think this nova is very cool! like it alot dave.
my advice would be a gsi bumper (or even blue or red stripes round your own bumpers),
lowered 60mm and i think thats it..
will be a really cool nova in my opinion.
looks good dave -- should look even better once lowered
doing not bad for a 14 year old ;)
13 von lo, 14 next week
ah well i wasn't far off it
does that make you a year younger than me?? i thought we were the same age
not done mush over this weekend. put my copied png sticker in the window lol
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h8...x/DSC00296.jpg
then the car had to stay outside as the garage was full.. shouldnt be too bad..
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h8...x/DSC00298.jpg
Nice sticker :)
Whats going on with that tax disc???!!!
More to the point, why is it taxed lol
I thought PNG got assimilated into PVG?
itt must be a fake tax disc, because its up in september 08, so he would have had to buy it september this year! unless hes doctor who its not possible!
It looks suprisingly real, Lol.
if it gets spotted by the bobbies even on private land its fraud IIRC
well going to try and get the seats in this weekend.. then draper has found me a 60mm lowering kit hes taking to pv for me... and hopefully big gra will be selling me some part worn 195 45 tyres.. so it wont rub
will update pics once the seats are it :thumb:
yeap the tax is fake.. but my dad uncles and auntie know all the bobbies in the area.. allways pop in for a cup of tea etc.. so they dont really mind lol. noone seens to notice really. its really there for show
it looks real because its a photoshoped tax. then ive cut the reflective bits out and put a old real one behind it.. it does look very real.. especially in the rain
well today got some sr subframes.. has 1 bolt missing out of the 8, one of the allen key ones, might have a go at welding it on in 1 corner.. so hopefully the seats will be in tomorrow ladys and gents :thumb:
