mmm perhaps... I was just thinking as I'm debading the car it might be a nice little touch to put the '206' on the wheels... I only want very subtle bits of colour over the car. What would you recommend/ think would work on the wheels Saief?

imo if your debadging why put badges on else where?
seems a bit pointless imo.
as for the tape again imo leave it off mate. get the wheels powdercoated as blue tape wont look great on it like that, but that is just my thoughts!
i would personally debadge and leave badges off not putting others on elsewhere and powder coat the rims anthracite grey and then possibly a blue lip?

well I want to de-bade purely because it neatens up the back... it doesn't mean to say I don't want any 206 marks on the car. Plus I'll leave off respraying because I like the colour they are now, and its time consuming to do it properly yourself, and pricey to get it done professionally. They've also only just been refurbed so would be a waste of a good refurb.
Think I might just leave the taping now Dan... on seconds thoughts unless its red on black its not going to look right. Might take inspiration from Ape's car though and spray the lower back of the wheel arch the same colour as the car... all though would that really be worth it on a silver car? :/ Plus all the cleaning that'd have to go into it 
Since last night I've also kind of decided red callipers again... I want something different and every silver car seems to go with blue. Just so long as its kept subtle and not large amounts it should work nicely?

red callipers can look good yes i agree although you will always get some1 somewhere say its to make them look "brembo".
i really like the idea of paint calipers silver or gun metal. so they always have that new look about them.
its your car though mate all we can do is voice our opinions!
