The only 1 on this side of the POND!
« on: 24 September 2007, 20:50:41 »
Yep its now officially an Opel OMEGA...  ::)I know the CATERA logo is gonna go away... soon I promise...  

Here is the car before...

And After...



This is what it could look when the Catera Logo goes away.... actually it looks kinda awkward... doesn't it?

and maybe even without the V6 emblem... pretty clean ehhh!?


Ohhh and see if you can spot the difference here...

[HINT] its not the brakes... look harder.  
BEFORE

AFTER

I think it looks kinda empty there without the CATERA logo so I might just keep it... and as to the V6 one maybe that will go away... replace it by OPEL or IRMSCHER... or maybe even STEINMETZ

I would have to say yes.. although I am not sure because the package was plain no names no nothing... but the new ones are with ruber like letters this one is plastic and all the letters are connected... so I guess they are... My dad picked it up on the way back from europe... it was dirt cheap something like 2 EURO... so the quality is not the greatest..

Well all i got is the front grille... the rear cadillac logo off the trunk and the front OEM calipers.... eventually I will be taking the rear wing off and putting on the GTO one that I have..  and the wheels but the are going back on sooner or later... probably as a winter set..

I wonder how much shipping would be to UK... I might be able to sell those parts to you guys... or give away... I will have to figure it out...

Thanks guys... I feel that with every new addition to it, I fall more and more in love with it... I like how its coming out... and I was thinking about selling her some guy was interested and I was asking 9000$ for it... but I don't think I can let her go so easy... the plan was to get an AUDI S8 2001-2003 but an AUDI is an AUDI this CADDY... or should I say OPEL is a car that pretty much doesn't exist here in the states and it gets a lot more attention then an AUDI would... and the AUDIs are expensive to fix... and modify... unlike this one... so she is a keeper for now. I would love to import the 3.2L MV6 from Europe but that sounds pretty impossible right now maybe some day.

The other day I spanked one of those Misubishis with the Turbo 2.0L and it had me till about 100 and then I pulled on him all the way up to 135.. I thought my car was limited at 125 but I guess not... the sucker couldn't believe that I even dared to mess with him... so she is pretty fast... I have a lot of confidence driving around with it... I hardly ever challenge people but this guy was just asking for it..

I will consider your offer... I got to see how much shipping would be to your place so I need a zip code or address or something so I can get an estimate... and I will send you what I got... I doubt its ever going back on the car...
Also I might be able to get you some other parts if you are interested like the tail end lights or something...
