Post by: mantahatch on 24 April 2009, 16:31:27
What do we think of these please ? http://cgi.ebay.de/NEU-TUNING-EDELSTAHL-POLIERT-SCHUTZLEISTEN-OPEL-OMEGA-B_W0QQitemZ290309345605QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutoteile_Zubeh%C3%B6r?hash=item290309345605&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1229%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

Do you think they would be ok or tacky. I do remember seeing them on some older mercs in the past and they seem to suit them ok.

nah it reminds me of too much of an xr3i and the only reason the xr3i had em was to hide the rust! although i think the XR3i/ RS Turbo ones looked a hell of alot much better as they werent tacky silver

would deffinatly not suit an omega or any car !!

It is funny you shoud say that Lizzie, as that is just the look I was going for. See I drive quite slowly, kinda cruising if you no what I mean.

Still everyone seems to be against so maybe not then.

I absolutely agree, it’s up to you.

So no, don’t fit them, buy them, or even think about them.

Here you go.
My mates estate in Netherlands .He bought it with them fitted I asked him about the " suitability " of them on the car but he just laughed 'cause it's just a parts chaser and daily hack.
Thats a Diplomat A bye the way on the back now secreted in one of his two barns  awaiting restoration.
Re the arch trims,     I think you should tread warily  ::)
