Will the Opel Omega grille fit the Catera?
« on: 26 August 2010, 15:04:56 »

And vice versa? Just wondering...because I think I want an Omega grille, but was wanting to trade my Catera one for one, but I think the Catera grille looks larger. Is it?

I would think that they are one and the same but don't quote me.
They usually do this to make manufacture cheaper all round.

Why oh why was there never a V8 Omega????
Such a missed oppurtunity.
Look forward to the Cadillac ATS & ATS-V. Maybe a re-badged one will replace the Miggy as a RWD runner?

How about posting a photo of your current front end for comparison? I have an mini-facelift Opel grill at home ;)

It looks close! Mr Goins, get your tape measure out and measure...

1) Depth at the centre point (top to bottom, not including the chrome embelisher on the hood edge).
2) Width at the point where it meets the headlights (bottom edge of the hood).
