Only had my 206SW since end of July and still getting to know it. Parked next to another one of exactly same age and model today (XT) and noticed the other one had a rubber trim or "skirt" along bottom of front bumper. I'm pretty sure my car has had some accident repair in the past (previously a fleet car so probably during that time). If this trim is standard, then mine may be missing because of this. Is this a standard fit?

I think your talking about the splitter mate and as far as I'm aware it should be there as standard. Hope I helped out

it's called the Splitter as Kylehaich said,and it's standard on all models,but it get's off very easily because it's very close to the ground,so it has nothing to do with acciedents,mine is 2006,and it don't have one anymore..lol,and i think the car look better without it :),but you fit one anytime you want.

Might take mine off. It looks stupid since it doesn't stretch the whole length of the bumper.

The standard one looks god awful I wouldn't worry too much about it. I have one which if you can have for free if you cover the p+p fees.

Thanks for replies. Was only wondering if mine should have had one originally. There seem to be so many variations of trim on these things it hard to tell whats standard.
To be honest, mine seems low enough without adding anything else. Live down a narrow lane and often have to back into a field gateway if my elderly neighbour is coming other way (she doesn't know reverse exists) and I left my number plate there the other week!
Cheers all.

Yeah its a splitter my car doesnt have one but I think its because its pre-plex.
Cupra R splitter looks perfect and easy to fit.

pre-plex or multi-plex doesn't have anything to do with it,all models have the same splitter
