Omega Front Grille-(99-03)
« on: 17 October 2008, 20:28:32 »
Having bought my Omega on 1st October, I didnt like the std Vauxhall grille, so I searched the internet & found a replacement at www.caraudiosecurity.com at Hayes in Middlesex. It is very good quality & was easy to fit. It only cost £51.00 incl postage!! However, I think it needs a badge & was wondering whether to fit an Opel or Vauxhall, with V6 in the bottom right hand corner. Any ideas where to get one from?

Think it looks good as it is, and at a good price will have to see about getting one.

I see you are in Leicester will keep an eye out for you and the grill around town :y

You're right Danny, it looks just like an Irmscher. If the quality & fit's good then it's a winner

It's funny how tastes change. When the Senator B was released everybody grumbled about the cheese cutter grille, looks like things have gone full circle. :y  :y  :y

Yes i have noticed this trend on a couple of subjects lately. Vectra cam covers being another little bit of folk law that went full circle.

Yes, but that grille was a lot bigger and far more impressive as grilles go, like the Senny itself! :-* :-* :y :y
