As some of you know, this is my second 206 and I love it! Got the car with the alloys and GTI arches. Added an HID kit, GTI suspension, sprayed front badge, smoked back lights, smoked back fog, smoked high level brake, smoked indicators, exhaust tip, 206info stickers and a few other stickers.
Looking to turn it into a GTI 180 replica.
More to come are - new alloys, GTI 180 front bumper with mesh, m3 mirrors, coilovers, tint the windows and thats it really.
Need some help with the alloys, should I have a go at refurbing my alloys and spraying them white? Or get white OZ racing alloys? Or black with a silver lip? Or GTI 180 alloys? Hmmm need some help.
So that was it when I got it really, got it home and changed a few things. Now a few photos after I gave it a good cleaning. I love seeing it shining but hate the fact that the person who owned it before didn't care about the paintwork so it's so annoying seeing all the wee marks and it really shows with black 
So thats it to start with, all comments welcome, good or bad! Thanks

For a 180 replica you need:
Rear bumper with exhaust trim
Front bumper
SP mesh (all three)
Sport Wings
Phase 2 boot strip
Crystal headlights
180 interior
Carbon interior trims
Leather Binnicle
180 Speedo
And other shizzle 
Good start, but no m3 mirrors please

Got potential but I big no no on the m3 wing mirrors, get some gti ones or something, but that's my opinion.
Sports front and rear bumpers, phase 2 bootstrip and some White OZ superleggeres will look smart on it (oh and drop it 40mm all round  )

I agree with addaz don't get m3 mirrors, they look crap when you see them in person despite some pics looking ok!
get some vortex/atlantis wheels (nom) maybe some genuine mudflaps, they dont look like the proper ones to me, i may be wrong though lol

Basically, if you want people on here to like your car you need sp everything and sports panels.
Other than that it's your car, have some imagination
