Hey mate, it suits the car well, but as you say the fittings a dogs leg without a doubt. Bloody shame
-
Yes it does look good and the spray job is excellent .... i dont know what they plan to do on wednesday though .... i guess they will try and fill in the gaps ? :-/
-
who fitted it the apprentice :o :o
-
nice spoiler,shame about the poor fitting. :-/ :-*
-
I just dont know how they are going to fix it :-[
-
It's about 6mm off to the right...
shame its a good match bar the fitting
-
Does it now go faster?? ;)

Yes i noticed that too ..... shows up better when the boot is open :-[

I like the colour of your omega....Always try to fit things myself if possible....If I take my time I can usually do it better than the so called experts. :y

You said it matey. You hit the nail on the head :y
-
So can anyone offer any info on how they will try to fix this .... can it be as simple as take it off and move it a little bit ?..... of should i ask for a second opinion somewhere else ?
-
they will have to 'oval the holes and line it up proplerly, it should then sit correctly.....
get them to protect the holes and possibly use a bit of silicone around the thread so as to waterproof it

I would imagine they would sand down the bottom on the spoiler to make it the same contour as the boot lid
-
It should fit without any sanding ... it was for the Omega Facelift .... i think they have fitted it a little to far back ... maybe needs to go forwards an inch ....Kind of pi***d off now .... ive tried to look after this car ........took it to a bodyshop that advertises fitting of bodykits etc thinking they would surely make a good job ..... should have tried to fit it myself :'( :'( :'(
-
hummm personally not for me, i prefer the standard lip spoiler you get on Elites.
Defo take it back, thats a poor job been done there. :'(

I tried and tried for ages to get the lip spoiler but couldnt get one for the facelift :-/ .... saw this one on an 2003 MV6 and liked the look of it though ..... still do even though not quite fitted right :-/
-
Well car went in today to have the fitting sorted out ..... wasn't expecting too much when i went to collect it but ..... im well chuffed with it now .... the gaps have been fixed and its looking good ( in my eyes anyway ) .... mind you it should have been like that the first time :y :y :y

Oh and i've put my new private reg on it today ( a pressie from SWMBO ) :-*

-
Hate to say it mate, but it still doesn't look right on the near side, unless it's just the angle of the pic :-/
-
I think its the pic ......it sits level and looks the same at both sides .... dont get me wrong its not perfect but its good enough for me .... :)
