looks better with front spliter and maybe sum eyebrows :-?

i,m not a fan of eyebrows but the splitter is a must, the grille looks odd without it 

[Ziad]

I'd say, go with the splitter and I guess a chrome surround for the grille would finish it off in a very lovely way 

[V6drift]

ive ordered the splitter so thats on its way and also some HID white LED sidelights to replace the blues  8-)
then thats it (i hope) you can take modifying too far then things can go wrong (maybe some springs)

Looking good V6drift, i must admit your is giving me some idea of what mine will look like but i'm not sure if the splitter will fit an MV6 bumper as this is what i have to go on mine and i also have some eyebrows, just on the look out now for a irmscher grille

thanks matey 

tonight ive just painted the rear calipers red and fitted the 5mm wheel spacers and new bolts.
tomorrow its new front discs, pads, more red paint and spacers and bolts.
its now getting very close to completion, just waiting for the splitter and i,m going to lower the back.

happy dayz  8-)

Those fat rear tires actually look quite well.

The exhaust looks like its loud too... got any videos of it..?

the exhaust is loud and boomy then turns into a quieter raw and raspy sound above 3K.
sorry ive not got any vids, i would,nt have a clue how to do and post them.
just unbolt your backbox one sunday and go for a blast 

Post them on www.youtube.com 


I would like to here that !!  8-)

been busy again shedding blood, sweat and tears (those bloody 18mm caliper bolts were tight)
changed the front discs and pads, painted the calipers red and disc centres black.
fitted the new 5mm wheel spacers with new longer bolts.
also changed those dodgey blue LED sidelights to HID white ones and changed the fuel filter.

front splitter and lowered springs to come 

[V6drift]

splitter arrived today so i fitted it straight on after work, looks awesome IMHO  8-)
great quality and perfect fit, holds itself in place but i put a couple of screws in just in case 
it even came in black gelcoat so i might not bother painting it (until it gets damaged)  :-/
almost finished now, still needs the arse dropping 2" but i,m well happy 

i also now think the grille looks right so its good 

[MV6Matt]

......Like your style V6!

I'm a fan of big black Omega estates (mine's a Prefacelift), too!
Althouh I have eyebrows on mine, I dont think you need 'em on yours.
Nice grille too.
Great stuff!

thanks for the comment, very happy with how its turned out 
i,m not going over the top but it is getting lowered and maybe paint the alloys anthrasite too  :-/
my boss has just bought a £240k bently brooklands, thats black with anthrasite wheels and looks stunning  8-)

i think the splitter should fit without any hastle, is the MV6 bumper any different to others? not sure  :-/
btw, mines down on the logbook as MV6, yet badged up as ELITE for some strange reason 
anyone know why???  :-?

splitter was only £86 delivered from ebay

It looks really sorted now, glad you got rid of the eyebrows.

I'm thinking one of the Irmscher things in the grill would make it look even better, too.

Quite jealous.

cheers 

but i never had eyebrows (hate the things) that pic was one i found to show the grille and splitter.
i also think the grille is still missing something but not sure what yet.

[El33t]

Oh, my apologies.

The trouble with the Omega grill is that it's sliiiightly too large to simply debadge. It looks a bit like it's fallen off without something there.

An Irmscher badge may solve the problem, but I think with just one very small thing there it'll be spot on.

[pedroMV6]

Holy shucking fit that looks good!

Have to say, I was a little undecided about getting the windows in my black estate tinted - your pics have convinced me it's the way forward.
I like the splitter, and can't see why it wouldn't fit an MV6 bumper.
Agree, the eyebrows wouln't look right.
grille looke fine to me - although the chrome surround on an Irmscher one would look good on most Omegas, on one that black, I don't think so.

So mine doesn't end up looking like an imitation of yours, I'm gonna do summat a bit different...........we'll see next springtime!

Regarding blue sidelights - if they are just on their own, they are illegal as the sidelights should illuminate white (forward facing light).
As fas as I'm aware, it's not illegal to have blue lights on a car, as long as they don't flash or have the ability to flash, when the car is on the public highway.
