*** More to Come ***
Looking good ste ya big gay
that looks ace fella. so little done but a massive improvement from standard. and not a stupid big bumper or max power sticker in sight. i like it.:thumb:
also got a gsi bumper sat in garage with fogs and splitter, i may paint grey and fit, unsure at the min
lookin nice mate,nice n simple but it looks angry lol. a black bonnet n black front quad lights wud look mint.
i wouldnt do that mate. its your car obviously but the only thing i would put on that is a bad boy bonnet (not everyones taste) and obviously carry on twith the 2 litre conversion. its a brilliant sleeper like it is. just out of interest how much did you pay for it as standard as i may follow your footsteps. finding a decent white nova is harder than i thought it would be.Quote:

no, keeping the smoked headlights, not having quad lights, and not keen on black bonnet or a bay boyed one...
yes the side strips are staying on, along with all the badges
and yes, im want a set of 4 gm mud flags for it
Fitted a GSI front bumper...
was red gave it a quick lick of halfrauds dark grey bumperpaint...

unsure of it at the moment, if i keep it, probably spray it rover hurricane grey, same as wheels,
also the grille option, not got one for it, so either find a gsi one, or bodge a late type badge-less one onto it
or i might even put the original back on
choice's choice's....
GSI bumper looks nice.
How about using the same spray on the mirrors?
the bumper is a diff colour to arches and rear, though it may of been a close match but no lol...
want bumpers, mirrors sprayed rover hurricane grey adventually....
Thats a shame... it must just be my monitor but the bumper looks spot on for the same colour as the arches.
It looks quite good without a grill as well.
You could smooth the semi circle bit in the GSI bumper and just leave it grill less?
Should look good with all the grey bits painted rover hurricane grey, personally id fibreglass that circle bit in the bumper and fit a badgeless grill and also get a smaller number plater.
Nice ste.
Deffo do the bumpers etc hurricane grey.
Wait till after winter do them tho, because stonechips etc
ste as said on corsasport i know of a gsi in scrappers if the grill is still there tomorrow ill get it you
what time you on work tomorrow ?
9-5 tomorrow..
but going mates work to use the 2 poster, to do brakes and fit exhaust hopefully
right ill give you a text then it i get it
looks god ste, not sure on the gsi bumpe at the minute but will ook loads better when sprayed along with everyting else

Its turning into a bubble version of the nova lol
Good work Ste, keep it up!
thats the plan in the long run, similar style to the nova...
thinking gsi skirts for in, sprayed same as bumper and wheels lol
Lookin good!
Gloss black for bumpers/skirts IMO!
and also a set of new reg plates would tidy up the car alot (standard font of course:thumb:) - you dont notice till you get em as to how much difference they make
Really need to get crackin with my Corsa too......
Got a set of GM mudflaps on the SRi i'm breaking if you are interested?
got the front and back lee? how much you want?
Yes, don't know what they are worth though. Will take them off tomorrow and check condition.
Ok.
Pic's of the cav im using for the conversion....
