The Astra GSI F2 deacals looked slightly better with bigger flying chips....
That is from an F1 car Colin, its a relay/servo cover. Where I work makes alot of very similiar items for Honda & Mclaren.
Each one is hand laid using prepreg, clave cured for 12 hours at 180c, demoulded & trimmed to shape by hand with air tools.
Replying to another thread reminded me off this rallycross nova with a slightly different version of the dealer colour stripes combo
Honda making a sly f1 comeback or you stuck in 2008?

Retro livery has had it's day & won't be back fort another couple of decades ;o
Well, after a long trek yesterday, it's back at home, stripped of paint, primered and powder coated (inside and on the floorpan underneath);
I'm really happy with the way that the outside has turned out, but to be honest I'm disappointed with the inside finish. I was wanting a glossy metallic grey, like the BTCC cars from the 90's, but it's ended up a rather matte finish, and looking like an explosion in a glitter factory, it's far too sparkly for my liking.
I think I'll have to have a coat of wet paint put over the powder coat inside it.

thousands of Nova (plus other Vauxhall and motorsport parts) available.
hmm. To be fair, its close enough, for me - or rather a tad more interesting looking than the 'default' dark grey / anthra you often see.
Now all you want for xmas is a decision to stick to on the colour
I was going to put i feel all nostalgic with your nova- so stick to the red spectrum the car has worn previously.
But with its new total overhaul, arch kit so much carbon etc. Im not sure either.
