Closer look at the Gear Lever one, the wet look wood is 'cos it's just been wiped with a "Wet one". I do like the effect though.

Looks nice, better than I thought beige would as I was considering it.

How did you fix the gaitor down to the plastic surround?

Looks good I like the shiny black and leather on your doorcards  :y

Very nice! I'm impressed! So did they sort you out with leather doorcards too?

The piano black makes me think of the Astra VXR...

Right, I will obtain the contact details from my Lad, & post them up here. I called the colour Cream, but apparently the Company calls it Beige.
I like the "wet look" as used by later Omegas, I will have to see what my options are (Laquer???)
These gaiters are fitted using the original plastic inserts, perfect fit of course.
The "Piano Black" door pulls had to be done, just matt black paint & laquer. The original soft touch finish was beginning to wear. This is much more durable.
The door cards are another of my Lad's ideas, they are "adaped" from another Vauxhall, 100 OOF Points to the one who guesses the model!

Calibra?

My vote is Calibra, too. SE8s had cream leather, from memory.

lol.  Was quite an easy one.  Not many Vx with cream leather.  Its a nice addition to your Omega, as are the Gators.  I'll be getting some made for mine ASAP.
