Would HSV side skirts fit on an Omega wagon? I want to keep the stock rear and front bumper but wanted to change the skirts to give it a lower appearance.
Opinions?

Yeah, I think some nice rims, lowered and a proper grille is enough on an Omega to make it look good. If I had to change something else on mine, it would be the front bar, but I would go for the Calais one, not an SV6/SSV. I like the wide lower plastic insert with no skirt.

Hahah ok ok, I won't do it XD
I thought the Senator skirts were similar to the omega ones just a bit wider? Already made a custom front grille and have FE2 shocks and lowered Aurora springs. Haven't put the new suspension on yet. Also trying to find some rims, possibly BBS LM reps.

there is a dealership in NZ called Auto66 who do the worst things possible to basic Commodores , by making them look like bat mobiles , I'll try to locate some pictures to show you what I mean , but picture if you will , an Omega wagon , dressed up to look like a Chrysler 300C SRT wagon , it just looks wrong .

I've seen pics of an Omega with the side skirts, but no matching front or rear bar. It looked terrible! :spew:

Don't do it.

The SS/SV6 kit is a good idea...

Yup I've seen them and they look ridiculous XD
I'll just leave it with the stock body. I did have an SS body kit but ended up selling it. Mostly because I needed money for wheels and parts. Also looking like an Omega means it won't draw as much attention since I've got a quad tip exhaust and going to put in an OTR intake.

Now I think about it it would look stupid putting HSV skirts on... I bought some HSV Clubby wheels a while back then sold them coz I figured they'd probably look a tad silly on an omega
