Since I have some time to kill till I get my front suspension fixed I thought I would try to finish up with an idea I have been toying around with.

Does anyone make these? Any ideas how about a photochop of something different or a picture?

Spectre Works is making a TON of spoilers these days.. I was at their R&D shop the other day and Fast Eddie was making some pretty crazy stuff.

Not sure on the Nova deal, but who knows.

your half way there use your mock up as a template and go from there.

The only commercially available units I know of are at spoilersbyrandy.com

They're conservative designs less than performance add-ons, and Randy makes no performance claims about them. But they do look nice, are well made, and fit perfectly.

I also think they'd be a great start for something more aggressive. The mount points, angles, and basic design are really good.

Any first-gen Nova that I've seen with a decent looking airdam had the bumper removed.
I think the bumper makes the car look too bulky.
Nice car-I have a 65 I'm building now.Who's front suspension is that?

The link above is a page showing how I made my front spoiler. I also Frenched the bumpers into the car so it may not be the way to go for you but it may help a little. Click on the "Spoiler Tech Sheet" above the pictures and it will pull up a 13 page word document that shows step by step how I made he spoiler including pictures and text.

I like your Nova. Its good to see more of the first gen Novas here. Good luck with the spoiler.
