#1: The bumper guide to budget modding! Author: Dabamash, Location: The car in frontPosted: Thu Apr 07, 2011 1:05 pm ---- So, the economy sucks, David Cameron is bleeding your wallet dry to pay for his multiple houses and cars and petrol prices are soaring.
On the other hand, your car looks like crap.
So here's the bumper guide to modifying your 206 on a budget!
1. Debadge the rear.
It's an old one and a good 'un and can make your car look much sleeker for a budget of exactly £0.
Obviously, there's the added cost of cleaning materials and T-Cut and stuff, but if you're lucky, you won't need it
2. Pull off your B pillar vinyl
Yeah, there's much debate as to whether this looks good or not, but I did it and I think it looks better.
Simply get a hairdryer and wave it over the black vinyl on your b pillar for a while, then pull it off. Do a small part on the inside of the door first to make sure that your car is painted underneath.
A small mod and slightly more costly than the last two. Replacing your standard wipers with aero style wipers can greatly modernise the front of your car, along with the added visibility in the rain. Many people suggest Bosch Aerotwins as being the best quality for your money.
4. Colour Coding
Colour coding is standard on higher end/newer models of 206. Reason? it looks great! This can be done very cheaply and will improve the look of
your car enormously.
Since you've just colour coded you car, why not paint your front badge as well? Or you could paint it black, or any colour you want to be honest
Here's a picture of Crossie's car to demonstrate (sorry Crossie lol)
6. Light Masking
This is a forum favourite. Originally done by Valeo, the Phase 2 crystal headlights with black innards have become very popular in the modding scene. As such, when Valeo stopped making them, people started making their own!
You can do your foglights to match if you are so inclined, and there is another how-to HERE to cover that.
7. Stickers
Again, stickers are like marmite, you either love them or hate them. I, personally, have a 206info sticker over my front headlight.
Stickers are cheap and easy to do, so they're worth considering
8. Door card trim
Get your hands on some cloth and retrim your interior. It can make an old, faded interior look much more luxurious and can be done on a fairly low budget.
Leather, suede, leopard print, pink and furry, your choice
Everyone knows that sporty cars have big red brembo brakes. So you might as well make your crappy 1.1 look sporty and give the old calipers a lick of paint
I believe Hammerite is generally considered a good choice of brand.
You might as well experiment with colours. The info community loves a bit of originality
10. Change your interior lights colours
Changing your dial lights from orange to something a bit more jazzy can improve the look of your car at night and make you feel like you're drive a Ferrari, rather than a piece of French s**t.
Mr Helsop has done a great how-to to guide you through it HERE.
It's worth noting that if you have a pre-plex pug, you can simply buy a lockwood dial and not bother faffing about with LED's from HERE
While you're at it, you can also change the main interior convenience light with something a bit brighter like an SMD tower to replace the standard bulb.
11. De-wiper your rear
This is another simple mod that looks great when done in conjunction with a debadge.
This is simply a bit of plastic, but it can make the back of your car look a lot more tidy if you have a Phase 1. Have a look at the next picture in the thread to see what one looks like. You can get these fairly cheaply from scrapyards, or occasional sellers on the forum. You'll need a bit of luck to find these at a scrapyard though.
13. Phase 2 Rear Lights
Again, this is an upgrade from phase 1 to phase 2. Keep an eye out for phase 2 lights in the For Sale section, as the often come up below £40. They are also really simple to fit, which is a bonus.
Obviously, unless you can find these at a scrap yard, this is a cheap, but probably not a bargain basement mod.
14. Interior Spraying
Spraying interior components, such as the door handles, central console, vents etc is often a popular mod. If you have some paint spare from colour coding, you could colour code the interior or engine cover as well.
15. Wraps
The cost of this is debatable and variable, but wrapping parts of the interior or exterior, such as wing mirror caps with carbon 3M DiNoc can be a great way of adding that sporty flair.
16. Sidelights
Smd Sidelights are a great way of adding that modern twist to the front of your car as they remove the yellow light and replace it with a bluer/whiter light. There are also much brighter than standard halogens, so there is an added safety aspect.
You can get a huge range of SMD sidelights. You'll need 501 lights to replace your old sidelights.
They come in single SMD, square SMD, SMD towers, multiple flat SMDs etc. However, the best replacement for your old sidelights are 9 SMD towers. These can usually be found on eBay for less than a tenner.
This is due to the fact that they are small enough to fit in the sidelight hole, but give full 360 degree light output without any loss of brightness
I recommend these
17. PH2 washers
If you have a phase 1 206, your window washer jets only spray out a single jet of water. Phase 2 jets mist your whole window with water instead. They look a lot cooler when spraying and also wash your window more efficiently. The best bit: You can pick them up for free from a scrapyard.
They are also cheap to buy and really easy to fit.
Well, that'll do for now. If you can think of anything obvious that I've missed, whack it in the comments and I'll add it to this post.

The glue is a bit of a b***h to get off, but I managed it without even using a hair dryer. I imagine heating it first would get it off without any residue.
If you don't like it, you can probably re-wrap it with gloss black vinyl or something
#15: Re: The bumper guide to modding on a budget Author: tomd0801754, Location: MoscowPosted: Thu Apr 07, 2011 1:43 pm ---- No glue residue.. Well, not after a quick wash.

#36: Re: The bumper guide to modding on a budget Author: Cai-206, Location: Tenby, PembrokeshirePosted: Mon Apr 25, 2011 4:11 pm ---- Really helpful thread, I'm wanting to get most of these mods done in the next few weeks
1. Debadge the rear. DONE ..I took off the "peugeot" and "206" badges, but left the lion badge on.
2. Pull off your B pillar vinylDONE ..think this looks great!
3. Aero WipersDONE ..looks fresh and I think gives a clearer windscreen.
4. Colour CodingDONE ..this looks lots better.
5. Front badge painting ..still not sure what colour to spray it seeing as my cars silver, maybe red?
6. Light Masking ..worried I'll bugger up my crystals doing this
7. Stickers ..I'm not keen on stickers.
8. Door card trim ..I'm thinking black leather, and on the glove box too.
10. Change your interior lights colours ..red, blue or white? hhhmmm.
11. De-wiper your rear ..want to this straight away, where can you get the grommits to fit the rear window from?
12. Phase 2 boot stripDONE
13. Phase 2 Rear LightsDONE
14. Interior Spraying ..am going to do the clock/radio/aircon surround red, might do the door handles and outer air vents too.
15. Wraps ..not sure what to wrap, maybe the wing mirror caps with carbon wrap?
16. SidelightsDONE ..I've also put 55w xenon H7 bulbs in for my dipped and fullbeam lights, and 55w H1 bulbs in my sport fog lights.
I've also put the GTi spoiler on the rear (I hope the Tiger Seal doesn't let me down), I've put a honeycome grill on the front and painted the silver/chrome edges red, I've put a L.E.D bonnet vent on (in my opinion they look good on a silver 206, I haven't wired it into my lights yet - not sure if I want to), got a gloss black stubby aerial, I've put SP chrome sliders on my dashboard vents, and I've put some red dustcaps on
..I think my 206 is coming on nicely!

Don't do the badge red, it'll look dodgy. However, the outer chrome might work in red. Put a pic up in the virtual modding area and somebody will photoshop it for you.
Wrapped mirrors are cool, do it

damn it! When I bought the car it had lexus lights, which I weren't to keen on so I changed them for phase one lights due to the age of my car and that everyone listed them for different 206's so I was under the impression that they fitted one or the other! GUTTED!!
Which parts are the reflectors out of curiosity? Are they the parts still attached to the main frame/where the bulbs are once
you take the other part to spray?
What about the boot strip, do you know if they are easyto change?
Sorry if I'm being a pain asking loads
