    Love the Mistrals Scott, not quite sure on the gold but vinyl'd or not, they look great (as did the old wheels)

    Ahh, see normally i don't ask opinions on styling, normally i just go yeah I'll do this etc and people normally approve

    Right, the only reason ive toyed with the sr styling is because..
    A, I've always badly wanted a Jamaica yellow SR, ive got close twice in my nova owning years, but i dont really want another project, or a rough shell i don't know..
    B, As per above i know this shell really well, it needs no major work, but needs a bit of tidy up here and there, so thought if im going to paint areas that are in the sr rep area's i could go that way and save time/mony, or if i re do it yellow down both full side it means rubbing strips removed, and they might not be re usable after, so the thought of not fitting them crossed my mind..

    As for wheels, well as much as ive enjoyed the look of the intra/expressions, they were never meant to be permanently in rattle cans, or a set of wheels for life etc..
    There rough, there a **** to clean due to spokes and **** finish etc, and as common on mk1 novas as speedline alessio's are to gsi's.

    So for ages ive been looking for a retro style rare but nice wheel, they fit the bill imo perfectly, and they will be easy to keep clean.
    I just need to make my mind up first.

    Mistrals look awesome! If they were around in 16" with a nova friendly width I'd have had them on all my novas as I think their fantastic looking.
