If you are looking for ideas heres a few things you might want to consider:
- Smooth the front bonnet
- Remove the yellow tint on the fogs (more of a personal thing)
- New front lights
- New rear lights
- New wheels (Personally I think you will get a better overall stance/look with different wheels)
- Lower it
Just a few thoughts. Other than that there is a whole world of smoothing opportunities out there |
Yeah I have to agree the bonnets going for a respray/smooth soon anyway and I have been considering new wheels and slaming it, personally I wouldn't change the front lights but open to changing the rears

Not really much of an update but since my last post I've taken the 206 off the road for some work few plans in my mind so ill be keeping this updated, also bought a 306 hdi as a new daily while the 206 is off the road, so in short the project should be getting more detailed from here onwards.

Nice and clean 1.1 mate. I used to have a cone filter on mine aswell but I took it off after a month. Some people told me that is not so "healthy" for the engine to have such an inappropriate air intake. It sounded cool though.

So another update went out today and finally fitted my strutbrace, painted my brakes, removed some weight inside and fitted my newly sprayed filler cap, the choice for alloys has also been narrowed down to two designs, but as for which will be happening next is just some more minor things, but i will be keeping tight lipped for now on some of my recent purchases and ideas,
How the car currently sits
Need opinions as to wether to ditch the yellow fogs or not?
