They're around £60 ish 

Frack that! 

They're around £60 ish 

Ah, my Sister's secret is out 

She didn't pay that for them though......that's the advantage of having your Bro-in-law work at Vx Main dealers 

Any chance of OOF discount?

Oops! Don't tell her it was me 
Pity Vx wouldn't do a 'half price sale' 

[jonny2112]

Maybe we could organise a group buy? At a vastly discounted rate of course

These mats look nice, but don't last very long. I bought a set for my Omega but after two years the driver's one had worn right through below the pedals and I only do about 8,000 miles per year.

Hi Mark, lovely car matey and some serious cleaning done there!
I have a query about your engine bay though? The airbox to throttle body/camcover pipework appears to be that fitted to a 2.0ltr not a 2.2 unless i'm mistaken

i thought that as well the plastic elbow on right of air duct is too short compared to my 2ltr although yours has less pipe work on the right side of engine compared to mine maybe just wrong duct absolutely stunning mig did you eat chrimbo dinner off it its certainly clean enough

I actually have an old rear mat over the Omega mat on my (drivers') side just under the pedals for this very reason, then I have valeters paper covering all the other mats (because I'm anal like that) so hopefully they'll last longer.....and stay cleaner. Also as My Meega is an Auto they'll wear less as I'm only using one foot on them

Gonna have to look into this finding, I have explained (earlier in thread) that I had a problem with the MAF which I fixed, but not sure of the work done by the previous owner (could've been botched at some point) but the motor runs well enough. I will look into it though.

Thanks for the 'clean' comment, didn't eat Xmas off it though....that would dirty the car 

Have a look at my 'Not strictly an Omega' post in this gallery, (http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=109083.0) you'll notice I have a habit of keeping my cars clean

Got the bumper painted today, (Mmmmmm......shiny  ) will build it back up tomorrow with the grilles, fogs, washers etc... and fit in the afternoon (weather permitting!!)

Just back from paintshop 







Will update with 'fitted' photos tomorrow.............provided it goes well (will be fitting it myself, I mean how hard can it be  Famous last words!!!)

[PhilRich]

If you don't mind me asking Mark, what did the bumper repaint cost you & did you do the 'prep' work yourself to keep the cost down? Cheers, Phil

I did the prep myself, just a couple of cans of primer to cover the paint when I went through to the the plastic and I just bunged the painter a few beer tokens for painting it for me (he's a mate) always good to know 

[Terbs]

I reckon your mate may now be inundated with omega bumpers, Mark

What price a job lot, if we all get them there by a specific time

[MarkC]

Haha, to be honest mate, I had to rush the bumper to the painter, got to get the timing just right for when he's doing that particular colour. As it happened he was doing star silver on that day .

[MarkC]

Built up the bumper today by re-fitting the grille, fogs, washer jets, cowlings etc...







Just need to fit the bumper now, next wekends job m'thinks
