Title: Opinions Please
Post by: Shrek on 29 July 2010, 12:19:30
Im in the process of attatching my Prodrive lip spoiler ... i have thought about placing the word Omega under the griffen bagde .... now i know they are squint and you can see the masking tape holding the letters but i wanted to see what it could look like ....pics of below  :y

So Yes or No to the "OMEGA" placement ... i think i could like it once properly attatched  :y :y

love the colour of that, and it looks much better with just the Vauxhall logo, i agree it looks like its been squashed in, and a bit of chavvy mod. But if you like it  :y

Sorry...personal opinion......but don't like it.
sort of "takes away" rather than adds, for me.

I would give that one a bye-ball S - looks much better without, especially on such a nice colour. 8-) :y

I think I'd be tempted remove the Griffin badge, then go for the OMEGA script.

Surely someone with decent Photoshop skills could help?

Have you tried spreading the letters out further apart?


O              M            E               G                 A

Might not look such a 'squashed afterthought' then.

An idea anyway.....................

If you like it, stick 'em up!

You can always change your mind, huh?

Mine had Vauxhall on the left, & omega 3.0 v6 on the right. Now it just says Omega on the left, & Elite on the right. The griffin badge tells you it's a vauxhall, no need for it to spell it out too!

Agreed, less is more

Did think for a while of replacing the griffin with the greek omega symbol, vauxhall on left & elite on right, but couldn't find a silver one the right size
