They'll look miles nicer than white.

Really nice car you've got, just a few little changes I would make and it'll be a top looking nova!

Always like to hear other peoples opinions, what would you change?

Anyway got them fitted, looks higher as its just off the jack but still needs lowered!

Bit of bumper & tyre shine make all the difference

That looks much much better! Trying to think what I'd change, lowering is a must! I've got a white nova and put white bumpers on yo make it a full gsi spec but black bumpers can look just as good, the blue tape was a good idea. Haven't double checked your pics but if you got rid if the badges on the boot that would freshen it up

GSi skirts will also suit it perfectly.

Just do little things and look at what other people have done, white novas are the best so it has huge potential

It's got -60mm springs waiting to be fitted, loving the look of the standard front bumper with laguna splitter, came up brilliant with a bit of shine too. Not sure on the badges as its a rare sight these days, cheers mate!

They look good, but I much preferred them white. I think that's just because of how much I love Shaunmods white on white corsa and speedlines.

Coming on though kid, did you say you weren't getting sideskirts?

Nah because the tin worm is already into my arches so it'll come back again once there sanded and painted, skirts on a Nova just hold in water and speed up the process

This came in for scrap today, looked a pretty clean shell apart from the damage from the forklift, shame!

Doubt there will be many updates for a wee while, trying to get insured as a learner and get lessons done, apprentice wages are shit.

This was a photo next to an old but clean-ish Audi that sadly came in to be scrapped at my work.

My mate brought his Fiesta in to be scrapped, couldn't find any rust/rot on it and it had 30k miles, such a shame to be scrapped but no-one was interested init at £400. Well they finally got a photo together... well kind of...

Cheers Dave.

Went to Kames Raceway today for its 50th anniversary, was quite a few pricey classics for example e-type Jag but we were just interested in our Nova stand.

Went round the track with 2 other Nova friends and at the end i man'd up and went out in the 1.2, first time driving the car like that and on a track, baring in mind I've not even passed my test yet.
