Hi All,
I started posting in the Photshoot Gallery, but I am doing so much to the car that I though it best to start a Project Thread.
So, Here is the car as I first got it
As you can see, it is a pretty clean example to start with.
It has:
17" Challengers
Most of the SP Kit on it
Powerflow Exhaust
Lowered on Bilstein All Round
And is all working spot on... Not bad for an 13 Year old Peugeot!
1st Mod was to Remove the 206 Stickers.
Second Mod was to get hold of Phase 2 Rear Lights and a Phase 2 Bootstrip
I was planning to Colour Code the Bootstrip, but after seeing it in Black I changed my mind.
So, a Red and Black themed car project was beginning!
Alloys were painted Black
Next, I upgraded the inside to a Phase 2 Centre Console
Then, I painted the Badge, The Bonnet Vents and the wiper cover. Along with the Bootstrip and Front and Rear Bumper Strips
Fitted the rear bumperstrip today, as I am waiting fot my Morrettes, SP Arches and Wind Deflectors to arrive.
So, on 18/02/2012 the car stands like this.
19/02/2012 - Painted the Door Handle Surrounds in Silver
Fitted (bear in mind the centre console is unfinished)
Today 21/02/12 the Morrettes were finally delivered, along with the Wind Deflectors and SP Arches.
Haven't got the Arches done just yet, but have painted and fitted the Morrettes and fitted the Wind Deflectors.
Centre Console was finished on 01/03/2012
Windows tinted 08/03/2012

Very nice! Love red & black 206's!
What was the previous owner thinking with that 206 info on the rear window!

Who knows? Was an older guy too....
It wasn't just the sticker on the back, there was also '206' on 1 spoke of each of the alloys.
Luckily they were only cheaply done, so just peeled off.

Yeah, it is a little annoying!
Not going to go with the Red Centre Console, that is a bit too lairy in my opinion. I may paint it in a dark silver/aluminium colour though. Make it look a bit more modern inside

Nah, no interior parts will be going gloss black. That is a bit dated now.
CC seats are a good idea, but the red is very bright so is a bit more suited to the cherry and flamenco red 206's. I think they would stick out a bit in a diablo red.
The mods are coming along simialar to yours 20619d, I don't think we will be going quite as mad as your engine bay and bootbuild though!
