The interior shots - did you re-paint the centre console and dash-board, or just laquer it? It looks really tidy, nice work mate!
The centre console and the instrument binnacle were both sprayed graphite then lacquered

#24: Re: 206T16's Ecosse 206 Virtuel Thread Author: 206T16, Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2010 5:35 am ---- andrewpro - I've no idea what lacquer was used as Ecosse did it for me.
anthony_839 - Ecosse also did the binnacle so i couldnt say how hard it was, they did say though it was abit tricky having to sand it down and the prepping of it.
Bolly92 - It's not that bad when the sun hits it, although usually at night i get the street lights, bouncing off it and onto my windscreen lol
coopskin - Ecosse fitted the HIDs

HID kits do fit straight into the lights, or at least they did on my old Morettes, it's just they're not legal.
Looks really good Graeme. Any more plans? The one thing I'd look to change if it were mine would be the wheels, the ones on it are fine but I think you could do a lot better, something a bit more special could really set it apart and give it a fresh new look for this years shows (assuming you're taking it to the shows anyway).
Something wide and dished with a bit of poke could really beef up the stance, would look tough!

HID kits are legal, as long as they are not over the legal brightness.
As for plans, im looking to get some Cobra Misanos or Recaro Sportster CS seats, so hopefully i can get them before the show season starts, although it all depends if Ecosse go to any shows this year. Tbh i dont think big deep dished alloys would suit the Virtuel kit, its just not wide enough to pull them off, if i had the Impact kit then that would be a different story.

Since when? Last I heard you needed headlight washers and auto-levelling headlights which the 206 hasn't got, therefore rendering them illegal. I'm not having a go anyway, I don't care, considering I had them fitted on my old 206 in Morettes and they never caused anyone a problem.
Misano's are lovely, not seen the other seats you mention. I think big deep dished alloys can suit anything, particularly when you've got flared arches like your car has. I just think it could set the car apart.... BobSparkle is one of example of this with his RH rims (pretty sure they were RH anyway!).
