Lil update:
As my center console and stereo surround was a little bit scratched. It was annoying me. I had previously flocked one ready to fit. So today I fitted it and changed the bulbs in the mfd (back to standard ones, hate coloured ones).
I think it looks great, so I decided to do the rest.

Half way through


All fitted. I also rewired mt boost gauge as it had a temp wiring on it (4 years ago lmao) Boost gauge is in the ashtray.


Bertone badge refitted


Looking good, matches the colour of the car perfectly too!


In other nova news, i'm planning (read if I can be bothered) on whacking the engine together.

[spanishfly]

I was looking at a 500bhp VI TME, however don't fancy the problems with them. So far-touch wood my coupe has been a great servent with how much abuse it gets.

Was it by hand? Or did you use a touch like machine thing? ( i have one and have never used it)

[spanishfly]

a frosts kit, seems ok. It's been sat in the shed with things on top of it and seems ok

[doge5644]

[Coopy]

[spanishfly]

I would flock the rest in black. However I can't be bothered to remove the whole dash and uncover some new squeeks. lol

[spanishfly]

Someone reversed into my coupe today, removing the front bumper and damaging it. Second time it's happened at the junction, first time was small contact. However this guy hit it good and proper. Has marked the bumper. Bumper iron bent and the headlight bracket cracked. Now i'm unsure what to do as the guy could easily try say I hit him (as he reversed) meaning it may go 50/50 so it'll be a claim I don't fancy.

Got this back sort off...


Looks worse in person, and it's rippled so not able to buff out



So I decided to service Traci's corsa. With that done I got the PC out and cleaned it. Comes out really good!


Front wheel high from jacking up suspension. It's lowered 40 mm.


Pictures don't do it justice.

[Coopy]

[Benn]

Bugger on the Coupe, Corsa looks great tho.
