    the only rusty part on the car was the door and a few little dents, but i got the body shop to remove them. also i got this fat old seiara(sp) exhaust,



    then i got it sprayed at my local spray shop. i got it slightly cheaper as i done the prep work my self.

    i did like the look of the standard front bumper wiv the splitter, but ive changed my mind now and i want a gsi front (smoothened). that will be later on tho.

    next on the list was the wheels, they had to be speedlines as ive always liked them! i found another nova with them on for sale, but he wouldnt sell them seperatly so i bought the nova and the wheels, then i kept the wheels and sold the car to my mate who's 2ltr 8valving it, it worked out i payed ?175 for the wheels!

    here it is................

    after i got the car back i sprayed the splitter, sidescirts and rear splitter black to brake up the colour.

    next on the list, sr spoiler, mesh the grill, rear lights and to get that exhaust on.
