Very nice - great colour and the MV6 wheels make all the difference  :y

Not so sure about the tailpipe though - may just be the angle of it.....

Eyebrows are an absolute no-no for me. Good colour though.

Each to thier own I guess with regards to the eyebrows, the tailpipe will be be changed once I get my hands on the proper twin tail silencer that should be fitted

Even if they're "non essential", if you cover over a certain percentage of your headlights you are liable to be pulled.

I'd avoid the whole "bad boy" look, it's a bit phatboy Corsa/Saxo.

I'm still a bit of a boy racer at heart, despite being the grand old age of 32, and I like to make my car stand out with subtle mods such as the headlights.  i have never been one for Barry Boys style bodykits etc....  I like to do most of my mods with OE equipment with a few personal touches, but then thats why some of us are on forums such as this, so that we ca get a few ideas....

There's standing out for good and for bad reasons! But then you get into personal choice.

I think eyebrows are a bit tacky. I see countless Barry Boys Saxos/Corsas/206s with them, so I have a fairly dim view of them.

The Omega is a more classy car by a large degree so I wouldn't normally associate them with eyebrows.

Of course, you could drop a 5.7 V8 into it, and then the eyebrows would instantly become ironic; something to terrify the local phatboy in his Saxo VTS  :y ;D.
