My 206 gti from buying it standard to how it is now.
enjoy.
standard as the day it was made.
few badges removed
now begins the tweeking
rear lights out and tint spray on
lights on
now for the badgeless grill
grill still black (it is china blue now but havnt had chance to photo it)
Back seats out. no need for these bogging me down
new shocks and springs all round (30mm drop)
phase 2 boot strip bought and sprayed (fully debadged)
That is how she is at the moment. i plan to lower it another inch or so all round and then put some halo lights in black on it.
It also has a K&n Pannel filter (for what its worth) a Griffiths quickshift and a stainless steel exhaust with no mid silencer and a janspeed backbox. and with no back seats it realy does sound amazing 
stay posted for more mods, but i am not going to be putting much more on it as it is more or less how i want it now. (i will put up a pic of the front all painted and looking angry)
Front. smooth and painted grill

i would say taking the back seats out is like removing a person from your car. if not a tad more. i think its a good mod, but only if you dont need them. i personaly dont need them because every one i know drives. makes the car sound much beefier from inside aswel.
i think the gti badges on the side look well sporty, but each to there own ey lol.

Surely the back seats don't weigh around 80kgs?

They are surprisingly Heavy but not that heavy. About 60kg. I also have no spare which is another 15kg or so. So it sheds the weight off. Not practical but i. Couldn't give a shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

Haha I knew someone would say that. It looked exactly how yours looks now. It just needed a few subtle modifications.
