I'm in the market for some front end trim pieces if anyone has some that are in good shape. Need hood trim piece, front bumper filler panel (plastic) and eyebrow trim both sides.

I can get everything I need from the Nova Parts places like ChevyII only, JW Nova Parts or ebay, they make all that stuff new reproduction. Just looking to save a few bucks if I can find a good deal.

Don't buy aftermarket eyebrow trim. You'll have a gap between the trim and the fender. For $6,000 I'll sell you everything you need AND the Nova, lol.

Thanks for the tip, I wondered how the repo stuff fit.

That's a nice Nova you got there for $6k...

You're welcome. The hood trim seems to fit OK, I have that. Not sure if yours is a 68 or 69, but last fall the Chevy II emblem for the hood was on national back order :roll: None of the vendors had them.

Mine's a 71... just bought a emblem off ebay a few weeks ago. It's not a perfect one, but it'll work better than the broken up one I had.

J&W Nova shows the 68 emblem in their catalog, but it says it's "currently unavailable". I didn't by the bowtie because I wanted the Chevy II emblem. Mine's a 69, but I like the Chevy II emblem better. I couldn't find a 68 Nova when I started looking, so I thought I'd make mine look like one, lol.

OK, I looked at the bumper in your avatar and thought it was a 68 or 69.
