    Default Breeze Blue XE project!

    I've been telling my self im going to build a nova xe for a long time now, however after 5 years of owning novas... the fastest i have ever owned was a 1.4sri !!

    Time for a change, thanks to Riggy i found this beauty



    After picking it up and trailering it home, i had to wash it




    I then striped the interior and sorted out all the wiring for door release button, leccy windows and boot release button.



    I then refit the interior, resprayed the steering wheel and got all the dash electrics working. i also put the boot release switch where the heated seat switches go.

    My mate L33LEG treated my car to a night in his garage ... so we fitted clear rears, and GSi window trims (not pictured)



    Also the boot floor needs a little tlc..
