Well Adam (00budham00) masked them for me but left the depo lens off for me to Clean but it didn't work and one without the other it's useless so I stripped the down for parts to sell and ditched them! Shame really! They were on as 'smoked' headlights, he did me a private sale price and he had a quicksilver with a gti engine in it..I think the orange suits mate, we're they from someone in Cornwall?

Ah..so it was same dude i messaged for price quote yeah he offered me £40 for the smoked ones too but i got bit worried by his spelling mistake.
Yeah it was someone from Cornwell,i private messaged him and gave me a price that was a lot lower than £40 which is why i couldn't say no,sold it to me for £20. Both genuine valeos too,only drawback i have is there is a dead bug inside the cover lol.
Shame on those headlights of mine though =/ never realised one of them was a depo lol.

UPDATE - 06-09-2012
So i thought i would do an update as i havent in a while. I did a lot of tidying up to the car and washing and cleaning and respraying before a couple of car shows. I decided to begin by removing my front bumper and cleaning it all out, removing the honeycomb grill, respraying this gloss black. By doing this I corrected any stone chips that I had and also on the chrome strip that i sprayed Red, I resprayed this in KKN Red. I also sprayed by tow hitch black to give a clean look at the front and also went over my black badge with some satin and then gloss black as i couldnt make up my mind. Let the picture talk..
I also had a clear out in the garage and fitted my SP Pedal Set along with Foot Rest
For by Birthday, 'my Dad bought me' an Auto Acoustics box thanks to Uz. Its brilliant and so I put in a Pioneer Sub in it. I then tidyed up my boot by building an Amp enclosure for my Amp - JBL GTO-752. It underpowers my Sub ever so slighty but im not fussed at the moment as im not making any more changes as i have some brilliant ideas for my next 206 car ugrade!
I did initially have a JBL GTO7001 amp however when i wired in with a 4AWG kit it decided to fry - ive taken it to a specialist and they have said it was damp when I used it - anyone want to buy a non working amp to repair..make me an offer!
anyway.. Tonight i finally got some new lights in the post and so i decided to put them on - dont fit the best but i will be tightening them once they have bedded in slightly - has anyone else had problems with these?
and some random pics:)

Oh and thanks to Rttam and Katie206 i aquired a standard front splitter just to add a little something.

Yeah I know mate just funds at the minute and possibility of a new job soon so maybe going to the dark side for something more economical but fun! I think if it was lowered it would be a finished jobby though..must agree!

UPDATE - 19/04/2013
Thought I would update this as it is now soo far out of date its unreal. I got my new job wahoo! and so have have a few extra pennies rolling in to complete this project..I think.. i am saving to move out so taking things month by month buts still better off!
I'e had loads of mods hanging about and the first main thing that ive wanted to sort is my sound system - i came across some modified 180 door cards and managed to track them down to the person they were sold to and then bought the doors cards of him, the rears of the original sellar along with some custom tweeter builds on the A Pillar..found a slight obsession for flocking (which isnt that hard to keep clean!) and so had the centre console, side vents and pillars all flocked and the speedo binacle too!
I was shopping around as i wanted to get a sound system going of all the same make and so ive stuck with vibe as i like the power their amps can kick and so i am currently running Vibe slick 6" comps in the doors, and an A4 2000w amp which is powering my components and the pioneer sub..the boot build will be changing though so watch this space all will be revealed!
In order to make the door cards fit i had to get an electric window kit running so after getting that sorting out the regulators and getting a switch that worked it got it all installed! i am also running a new HU so i can run 2 amps which has more preouts and also handsfree bluetooth calling
I managed to get some crystals at a brilliant price off a 55 plate CC and they are imaculate which im happy about and i got rid of the black badge and went back to standard..I tracked a non sport SP grille along with the middles to in the orginal colour. Ages ago i also restored an original Devil Exhaust around 300 quids worth as an optional extra so i got that fitted too, perfect tone not boy racer and just a little grunt for the 1.1..perfect! Sports Bumper to be fitted to, correct paint code, fogs, arch liners and sp grill £50!
Sorry for the massive text, enjoy the pics, last few pics are how it stands tonight after a 3 hour clean..
To Do..
- Completed Sound System
- Fit Front Sports Bumper
- Possible Splitter for new bumper
- Buy 180 Glove Box Lid
- New Interior
- Bonnet SP Grille
- Possible new wheels (306 wheels are everyones cuppa tea on 206's at the minute i like being unique)
- Spoiler
- Possible lowering only around 20mm though
All C&C welcome
