Hello Nathan,
I have not been on this site for ages but occasionally poke my head in. It was very interesting to come across your thread, check out the links below and you'll see why (if they don't work, cut/paste them into the URL)

Pics of car lowered with Cav slabs

Your GTE is absolutely gorgeous, I've had 4 Novas in total back in the day with 3 of them being Red Gtes, one had a 1.6i Turbo Conversion, hence username ....
I kept all the original apart from lowering it, getting a Honda Jazz rear wiper blade and inserting rear head rests, the orange indicators and the rounds repeaters in the wings, I still had, I guess having the clears was in once upon a time and never got around to swapping them over which the new owner did.
As I was going through your thread, I noticed before you had it repainted, the car had Astra GTE decals on them (e in gte is curved) and glad they were replaced for the OEM spec.
All in all, really really nice car, they were rare when they first came out and now well.......
Two things id like to suggest if you wouldn't mind, I would try and source a replica oval GTE exhaust back box if you can't get an original (I had one from a company called Bossal) to go with the exhaust cut out in the diffuser and this one is ultra minor but go to Vauxhalls and get some original number plates made up with the GB (optional) and vauxhall dealer logo. E.g mine are from Now Vauxhall and the Blue in the GB take up the entire corners of the plate.
It's nice to came across a thread like yours knowing there's someone out there as anal if not more as you are .
Btw, speedos look at treat on a GTE, cav slabs come a close second. ;-)
All the best GTE Turbz

Anyways continuing on from an annoying distraction (no elbows pointing) the Nova past it's MOT this afternoon.. Thankfully the MOT guy had a glance through the window to see that all seatbelt stalks where in place ..
Nothing much happened afterwords but give it a wash as weather was pretty poor and put her back into hibernation awaiting for good weather (doesn't look like that will be happening anytime soon)
Comments welcome..
Car looks great, I honestly wouldn't change a thing.
Not going to change anything apart from lower it slightly at the rear other than that she's perfect..
