Looks like you have an Irmscher front grill. Shame the Vauxhall 'V' messes it all up!  ;)
my last miggy was a 1999 elite, that had an identical grille (fitted as standard) - looked the same except for the irmscher badge (which may have been retro-fitted?) - complete with the 'V' ...

couldn't the intake pipe have been sited behind the front grille (as per the normal setup), looks in an ideal spot to scoop up water at present ... nice wheels though  :)
That is how it came to me, bought it from a bloke at a show last year who had just replaced his with the same but with a crome surround, he must have put the irmsher logo on.
The 100mm pipe would not go to the same place to tight, so had to put it there for now.
Try not to take it out in the rain.

No more plans to mod this year, maybe thinking of some kind of bonnit vent to help keep the engine cool,  looking to replace the steering wheel for the one with the walnut surround to match the dash,
stainless steel sill plates with omega logo. But getting mod parts for these cars is near impossible or costs hundred's of pounds.
Will be taking it to Courtnay sport next year to get a remap & a 4 bar regulater fitted

I would spend the money on some 3.0 cams.....much better power upgrade and guaranteed to actualy do something and not just get a talked up Courtney figure!
Where would you get the cams from & how much would they cost.

I would prefer the standard spoiler too, and that intake looks well out of place, otherwise - what a stunner, it is a credit to you.
