#1: RTTAM'S 206 GTI 180 now for sale!!! Author: rttam, Location: devonPosted: Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:40 pm ---- thought id pop up a project thread of my 206 gti 180 had it a long time now and finally got it pretty much how i want it
the day i picked it up feels like forever ago (came from the factory with the morette headlamps and full stainless grille set )
first mods were the red led rear lights and clear fog and headunit from my old 206 and a k&n panel filter
got round to fitting the clear hi-level brake light from my old 206 and some chrome side repeaters
got my cupra splitter on unfortunately the one from my old 206 wouldnt fit the gti bumper so had to buy a new one
blacked out the edging on the front badge
new black led rear lights got bored of the red ones
had an incident with my n/s/f wheel and a rock down a back lane so ended up rolling on the 15"s off my old 206 for a few weeks
bought black led brake light and fog light to match and some smoked side repeaters
few pics
then i wanted a small install so did this
took the peugeot and lion badges off the tailgate
finally after a lot of saving a few more mods lowered all round, peugeot styled mudflaps front and rear and an espace front splitter and redid the front badge completely black
my old kenwood headunit decided to die so got a nice new one
and a pipercross air filter
took the mudflaps off and swapped the splitter back to the cupra one
new janspeed cat back exhaust sounds awesome
got fed up of my sound system and went for the stripped look (this lasted about a week the noise was too much put the seats back in but left the sound system out)
xmas came and i got an omp strut brace and carbon effect ecu cover from my parents
wired in a 406 auto dimming rear view mirror
and fitted an 8 ball gearknob (this has since been swapped back to the alloy gti one)
got some money for my birthday so treated the car to some sp arch extensions, a 207 sp grill badge, some new peugeot floor matsand a bloody good clean
went to a local car show
and to modified mania show
(thats me on the left btw )

Although one small thing I would either put the rear badges back on or take off the 206- Gti. Looks a bit uneven. That's only my opinion though

#6: Re: RTTAM'S 206 GTI 180 Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:14 pm ---- Don't modify the styling anymore. It's in danger of tipping it over the edge of what's good and bad taste.

yeah definately dave busy the next 2 weekends but il give you a shout after that
as for the hids its a no the rozzers around plymouth where my other half lives are very hot on modded cars and had a few run ins in previous cars so dont wanna take the risk as much as they would be spot on for the country roads where i live

Mint 180 though!
