Title: Omega Photo - Messing about with Photo editting !
Post by: SJKOO01 on 31 July 2009, 20:36:32
Was messing about with my photo editing software, and edited a photo to see what my Mig would look like if I did this to it ?.

Not really sure at the moment ?.

Any thoughts from anyone else ?.

Looks ok but for having square wheels  ;D

The rear blacked out windows look a bit to Pimpish for me  :-?

Think I will go ahead with the project, when I can find some decent snowflake alloys with tyres for a resonable price.
Keep looking on evil bay for some, but there either way out of the area to go and have a look at them, or been kerb-to-death !!.

Already got some -40mm springs for it some time ago, just never got around to fitting them, but thinking of selling them to get a proper -50mm lowering kit, as if I'm doing to do it like the pic.

Got myself a Prodrive boot spoiler recently, so get that fitted soon. Though trying to track down a F/L MV6 front bumper is difficult !.

Thanks for everyone's comments, as it's been encoraging, so expect some proper photos late on of it finally done   :y

For decent 19" snowflakes with good rubber your looking at minimum £600/650 easy. Then you will need £200 for spacers from eibach as well. If you wanna sell your 40mil lowering springs, pm a price mate.

I like the look of the 2 door, pity VX didn't make a coupe of the Omega similar to what Peugeot did to the 406 :).

I know Vauxhall made the Mig to take on the likes of Mercedes & BMW excutive saloons in it's heyday, probably why it only came in 4dr version, and towards the end they slotted in a 3.2 in MV6 form.  But i truely think at the end of the day, Vauxhall wimp'ed out on making a VXR version of the Mig.

Okay, so they played around with a V8 prototype version to assess the possibility of putting it into production. But then turned around and said there's cooling issues !  :-?.  If a manufucture can't work their way around issues like that, soemthings wrong surely ??.  Different V8 engine, and a 2 or 3-core radiator would surely solved it ?.

Ford took what was basically a ford 2.0 pinto block, reinforced it, bolted a turbo on it, shoved it into a 3dr cosy body, and then upped the power in the later models, and they could get 450bhp easy and even road going versions could take on Porsches at the time.  I think the Omega got over looked quite abit.
 
Yep, nice 2dr with v8 & supercharged would be very nice....... Wonder if my x6 numbers will come up on the lotto this week ??  ::)  ;D  ;D

IIRC, GM didn't have a V8 that'd stand up to full-throttle cruises on the autobahn at 150mph, so canned the project.

Don't worry about the wheels Andy.  Was going to log onto OOF later in the evening to see if you'd answered, then ended up watching a film and falling asleep (obviously a good film !!), and could be bothered - Wish I had logged on now  :-/ .

Not to worry, still on the look out.  Definatly think the wheels will be the icing on the cake at the end of the day.

Thanks for parceling up the goodies. Look forward to receiving them.

Still not got the boot spoiler on as yet, car was supposed to be going in for the work last week but a delay, so off in next week now !.
