I like the look of that. I'm after a set of them alloys myself.
I like the grill, did you make it yourself or buy it like that?

i got the grill off of ebay (germany),to make one your self means cutting all the lugs off the original which holds the black insert i only bought this because someone pinched the chrome 'v' quite a few people have commented that it gives the car a mean look with the black mesh behind the grill fitted,got the wheels of of ebay also.added a couple of more pics.

That grill will fit any omega b,you can get  a sports grills for the facelift omega also,i think the wheels suit the  car nicely, i thought the ride might be a little harsher but it's not that much difference than the standard 16 inch wheels. Thanks for the comments.heres a link to  a similar grill.

I
bought this grill, it arrived today, looks a bit tacky, the mesh is silver and very cheap looking. Will give it a satin black spray and have a respray of the surround and fit it, then will post pics - see if it comes out ok.

The quality is not that bad but not as good as the irmscher original( the original irmscher ones cost £197 with out paint),the mesh on my grill was also silver so i sprayed it black satin, also dont forget to use plastic primer on the surround or the paint will just fall off in a couple of weeks. post some pics when you have done it. :y

Have given it a spray and and got it all ready to go on, and Halfrauds have managed to get the most un-matched colour in the world, quite dissapointed, looks like its grey! Have got some stuff mixed up by a paint company today and will see how it looks tomorrow, and I'll post pics if it looks good.
