Black 17" alloys
GTI spoiler
SP Fuel cap
PH2 boot strip
Debadged

#7: Re: snow_n_low white project Author: Luke, Location: LeedsPosted: Sun Feb 07, 2010 1:10 pm ---- Car looks great. White cars always look fantastic IMO, and your does look spesh.
I'd get UK pressed plates instead of Euro ones though. Euro ones are illegal to use on the roads. www.dubmeister.co.uk sell UK road legal pressed plates.

Thanks! 206s do look gorgeous in white
Although saying that, most cars do these days, white is very much the 'in colour' just as black was previously.

Though about it but i want to keep it as standard as i can really, more just smoothing of colours and minimalising.
Black LED's would mean i'd need to replace the fog and 3rd brake with black aswell and thats just a bit chav
I love how it looks from the back atm just needs to sit lower and wider
But cheers for suggestions!

I do remember a white 206 now you mention it. Did you drive around with the Bump Strips on the bumpers removed (I guess whilst they were being sprayed)?
Between a couple of us, we know most of the guys and girls in the area who have modified motors

I'm not goin for the standard 180 lookalike i want something different, goin for a euro smooth, low look.
prefer the smoothness of no fogs on front bumper but would like a sports rear, wings i dont see the point they arent much of an improvement, arches no, doesnt go with smoothness for me. Back box yes though your right there!
#29: Re: Project White: snow_n_low Author: JordGJ, Location: Leeds / West MidlandsPosted: Sat Feb 20, 2010 6:57 am ---- UPDATE
Right not a huge one but couple of things that have taken longer to get done than they should, namely TORSION BAR
but on that note i would recommend The Pug Shop in Lye, in the West Midlands they did a great job for a good price, really know what they're doing.
Anyway yeah so torsion bar has been adjusted and coilovers adjusted, but need to go down a bit more on the front i know, will deal with that soon. 20mm spacers on the rear to compliment the lowness with some wideness lol. German style pressed plates fitted, i love them, some dont lol, but they go with the euro look. Only used for off road use OBVIOUSLY
Anyway took some nice pics here you go:
Next update should include crystals, cc'd door handles and front will be even lower and possibly a surprise involving some vinyl feel free to guess lol...
Cheers for comments + suggestions

#47: Re: Project White: snow_n_low *UPDATE* p2 Author: carol206, Location: Dumfries and GallowayPosted: Sat Mar 27, 2010 7:34 pm ---- Oh my its like sex on wheels!!
Well all this is leading up to a big update because i've bought a load of parts that i need and want
Well firstly this lot arrived that i have needed to do for a while to give the car a general freshen up and fix a couple of niggles i have wanted to sort for ages!
Fuel, oil, pollen filters,
K&N panel filter,
Bosch super 4s
Check strap to replace on drivers door (v annoying door swinging open!)
Replacement wishbone after bishes have gone causing creaking! :@
Anyway got to work fitting all this and while i was there flushed coolant, replaced oil, checked all fluids bla bla... as u can see filters needed doing, car is running much smoother now
K&N hehe
Well thats all maintainance and not so interesting so i deciding while i'm spending money i'd treat myself and thanks to Alex aka kenny16m i got Some h7 crystals, GTi half leather interior, GTi leather wheel and electrics for electric window conversion im planning, all in great condition at a great price! Cheers mate! So after a trip down to wales i came back with a van full of goodies! Amazing how nice the leather interior came up after a good hoover, scrub down and leather treatment!! :
Some nice lights and interior to replace my GASH lights and interior!
Can't fully fit interior until i get electric windows sorted so will be another big update soon also inc crystals and leather wheel to go in! (and some painting going on)
Although i did get bored and managed to replace the rear parts of the interior! Much better IMO:
Like i said hang fire more updates v v soon hopefully!

Looks good mate. Love white 206's
What exhaust have you got on there? Is it just a trim?
Yeah just a little pee shooter i had lying around in the garage, was better than a rusty pipe. But i will be getting a smooth sports rear bumper and hidden exhaust so not doing anything with it till then
Bit of an update, got the rest of my interior in over the weekend, and my crystals and gti wheel. Front doorcards will have to wait until electric window conversion is done!
Interior - before:
Interior - after:
Wheel - before:
Wheel - after:
Lights - before: (crap)
Lights - during: (thats not me btw lol)
Lights - after:
Crystals are fitted with h4-h7 adapters and have led sidelights and xenon full and dipped beams, 100x better than the frosted lights! Will sound stupid but seats and wheel make it feel like driving a different car!
Anyway let me know what you think Cheers

Painted my front toe eye black as it stood out which i didnt like!
Before:
After:
Much better! Smoother looking front end now the tow eye is almost invisible.
Also did my front calipers, disk edges and hubs gloss black.
Looks ten times better than faded paint and rust i think
Before:
After:
Also sorted out all my bits that need to be sold, heres the link to the thread, there's spacers, bolts, seats, steelies etc:

When i fitted gti seats in my old 206 it felt totally different, i loved it. I'm thinking about doing my calipers soon, was it just standard hammerite you used? how long did you have to leave it to dry before driving?

Yeah just standard hammerite, smooth drying i think though. And i only left it a couple of hours because i had to go out, seems fine though nothing comes in contact with where i painted anyway so doesnt really matter

Bit of whoring going on sorry enjoy... (pics look much better max'd )
Also picked up my sports rear bumper that will have a smoothed tow eye and exhaust recess...
and while i was out asked my mate about doing the hidden exhaust so progress can start on that! It's a step in the right (smoothed) direction anyway got a cheeky one on the ramp:

Well since i'm going euro and smooth i'll be keeping the front bumper and rear lights, clear indicators are on the list however
and next plans tbh are wheels... i'm thinking banded steelies or something equally low and wide

banded steelies are cool but i dont think they'd really be inkeeping with your theme atm. try taking a look at imagewheels.com sure they'l have some on there you'll like

Wheel plans are still very much open!! banded steelies was JUST an idea! and the £££ part is the problem im on a budget!!
Wheel suggestions would be greatly appreciated guys not looking for anything bigger than 15" want something wide an dished
Cheers for comments aswell!

To be able to pull the euro look off you need rare and £££ wheels, thats what makes the look. Just save and keep an eye on ebay, can sometimes get a set of rare wheels at a bargain price
#86: Re: Project White: snow_n_low *EVEN MORE UPDATES* Author: JordGJ, Location: Leeds / West MidlandsPosted: Sun Apr 25, 2010 8:44 am ---- Tbh you say rare wheels but most nice euro cars all have the same wheels... borbets, schmidts, bbs... i want something different, something no ones put on a 206 before
#87: Re: Project White: snow_n_low *EVEN MORE UPDATES* Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sun Apr 25, 2010 8:46 am ---- what about a set of these www.imagewheels.co.uk/...es/bl.html
would do them myself if i had the money
#88: Re: Project White: snow_n_low *EVEN MORE UPDATES* Author: JordGJ, Location: Leeds / West MidlandsPosted: Sun Apr 25, 2010 8:50 am ----
Lovely but i think i'm gona have to wait til the right set comes along on Wheel whores/ebay/here or somewhere for the right price...
In the meantime i have my bumper to get on with, smoothing my aerial and other little details that will make a nice difference, i like my current wheels no real rush
#89: Re: Project White: snow_n_low *EVEN MORE UPDATES* Author: JordGJ, Location: Leeds / West MidlandsPosted: Wed Apr 28, 2010 3:16 pm ---- Right well my SMD LED obsesion has escalated and i had to sort out my interior lights! Great little mod very cheap and easy would definately reccomend!
Also, my SP fuel cap really didnt fit in with my smooth/euro plans so sorted out a white one:
All about the details
Alsooo... was bored so had a go at fitting my sports rear bumper before its smoothed and sprayed white:
I think it looks cool in a hideous sort of way lol...
Cheers for looking should be a big update soon with smoothed rear bumper and MAYBE even wheels

On a side note... those led sidelights will start to go wrong, they start to flicker after 6-9 months, I had them, have tried pretty much all of the LED's and now use lux / flux some people list them differently

Yeah mine we're black with a red pinstripe when i got them but soon grew out of it and had them painted over black. Much more subtle IMO, selling wheels soon anyway i think.
If the LED's go in 6 months thats fine with me i'll just replace them, at £1.40 a pair i'm not gonna grumble if they last me 6 months! I love them lol

Yeah its a good look! My rear bumpers being done as we speak so shouldn't be too long :)... IMO ph1 rears suit the smooth look for some reason, something about the horizontal lines i think...
