    I dont know yet, i really want to keep the original lips since they are more square-ish than aftermarket ones, and i might have changed my mind about them... i want 17" again.. found some cool TSW rims for a low buck... hmmmmm

    about the tail lights, yes! there is a website quite similar to eBay on Brazil and those smoked tail lights are quite cheap... less than 60 euro per two units, BUT, i don't know how would it be to import them to europe neither if the salesman would do sell for people from abroad :/

    Hello! Good to see more omega fans on SW forums

    Thats a nice looking wagon! Can't wait to see what you are gonna do with it

    About the grill, it will fit if you cut into the chrome on the bumper As opel, the white one is a Opel Omega A1, while yours is a facelift A2
    And the indicators are painted with orange tint

    Is there a shop in brazil where we can buy black smoked tail lights??? i REALLY want some!

    Little update

    i've got rid of every omega i have except the white one, which is getting new rear arches + + +



    Also got a Lotus spoiler tihi

    The Tramonts are getting some attention, silver lip with red center probably gonna be done in a couple of days

    Check Ebay, Ebay Kleinanzeigen, FB and stuff like that.
    Most stuff is sold "under the desk"...

    If you want to get rid of the old style ems, you can look into the omega b with the x20se engine
    (basiclly a c20ne with dis, agr) or the ems from the astra f gsi with the NE engine, it still has
    the distributor, but has the newer style hot wire air flow meter...


    And make a thread for you car, threadjacking isn't that welcome here...
    Thanks for the info! I'll create my topic and put more info about me and my car soon
    The EMS system it's gonna be hard because in Brazil we don't have these versions (Omega B and Astra F GSi). Maybe it's possible, though, to use the Vectra B 2.0 8v that we had there. When I return home I'll try to find the best solution. For now, my idea is to use a custom/programmable EMS so I could easy tune it up in case of future performance upgrades

    EDIT
    here is my thread! http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...07#post1524707

    I was expecting that, but it's ok!
    do you have any website that you guys use to search for parts? I really would like to take some opel emblems to my car, and also a different steering wheel (something like the lotus one, 4 spoke and smaller), as the orange indicators! My goal is to install an aftermarket fuel management system (to get rid of the mass air sensor), do some weight reduction, lower it a little bit and so on!

    hello guys!

    sorry for ressurecting this topic, but I'd like to know where I can find these orange indicators for the opel omega a ;P

    im from Brazil, and we had this generation there. Nowadays I'm living in Hungary, but I'll be back to Brazil in the end of august, 2016. I have some ideas to customize my Opel Omega A caravan, it's a 2.0 C20NE.

    one more question... this grill from the white omega (it's an older model, right?) fits the newer ones, like the caravan from the same post (with the chrome lip)?

    thanks and congratulations for the nice cars

    the black one is my car..

    these other two are projects that inspire me!

    Eh... so much has happened

    pics! from last year to today


    I bought these BMW X3 rims which i have always wanted on a omega, so lowered it with removing the stock spring setup and put a E39 shock absorber and a VW spring so it didnt hit the body, and the VW adjustable coilovers in front, Drove to a car meet called Spring meet with loads of VAG and bimmer peeps.. didnt get much attention so that kinda put me off....


    well summer came and i bought some BBS RC 304's which were in BAD shape and tires were on the limit of road legal, so sold used them up on the local "track"




    Did a small photoshot, i wasnt pleased with the height in front so didnt do that many front pics..







    And i got a new ride since the 2.6 auto is soooo thirsty...

    i bought this one WAY more then it is worth really... got loads of stuff to replace and rust... but its a 2.0 manual and thats what i really care all about.. rust in the towers in front, rusty floors and so on... new brakes and bushings are needed

    Still no job... its really hard to get a decent job here right now so i cant afford buying new rims n shit
