Nova 1.4 SRI

[--ToM--]

Hi guys i am fairly new to the forum and have just straight swopped my corsa for a nova 1.4 SRI. people have been asking why i did it but iv always fancied one and the chance arose so i went for it it and do not regret it at all i havent really done much to it since getting it apart from paint the wheels get the windows tinted and fit a better sound system, my gmax 60mm kit is in the post and should be fitted before pvs!

anyways heres a few piks of my corsa and my new nova!







I was sad to see it go for about a week or so but soon got used to the nova and love it to bits, so much more fun to drive aswell!

this is it when i first picked it up



wheels off ready for painting


reason for having a mk1 rear bumper is that previous owner revered into a tree and cracked the original hence the small dints in the boot either side of the reg plate, future plans are to get gsi bumpers and paint the the same colour as the wheels along with the skirts! also want to semi smooth the boot and tidy up the bodywork a bit, overall i think its wuiet clean and it has 36k on the clock aswell!!

backbox adjusted so its sits in gap properly!!





interiour and engine bay piks!





and heres a pik taken just after windows were done so still all dirty but you get the idea!! by the way guys sorry for lots of seperate post but im only allowed 10 piks per post apparently!!

Very nice.Are those tints legal? Dunno if its just the angle of the pics but they look very dark.

looks like youve got yourself a good example there mate, that bronzy red kicks 4rse, colour of the wheels goes well with it too, done a good job on those, not a fan of the tints myself, but everything else looks sweet

edit : whats the boot floor like for rust after taking that knock, was it long ago ?

Cheers guys, i was bored yesterday so ventured out to the scrappy and got myself some 2.0 16v brakes and fitted them piks will be up soon, as soon as i finish work tomorow ill be cleaning it ready for pvs!! mk2 bumper is on the list of things to do i want gsi ones and am going to paint them same colour as the wheels

with regards to the windows i didnt want limo black as its too dark and imo chavvy so i got dark smoke which lets 20% light through for them to be legal i think it has to le 50% through but oh well it looks good!! i wasnt sure at 1st as i wanted to keep it looking original but i think it helps with the dark bumpers and wheels

Cheers for comments guys!

oh and i also have a 60mm gmax kit to fit tommorow gonna be a busy boy!!
