New to my 206, And basically I just have a few questions, Oh and I have a 1999 T Reg 1.1 L
Window Wipers - What damn size are they? and where can I get them? I need some new ones (I have seen the bosche aero ones on here and love the look of them, But I can only find pairs of 19" ones, and mine are different sized?)
Simple mods + tuning?: I know this has probably been asked 10000 times, However the search has thrown up nothing relevant, I have a small budget, Say £300, With a bit of leeway and I would like to just make some changes to really make it my own, I have a new headunit coming due to the stock one failing (Thanks Harry!) I am going to be getting new Air filters, Pollen filters, Oil filters etc, But what else can I do thats not too drastic (And on my budget!) Inside and out! 
Cheers for the help, and I apologize if it has been asked before
Jack

19/26 - can't get Bosch but Valeo make them
Don't waste your money on tuning
Servicing, gen parts only from Peugeot. they are cheap enough

Guessing its a trip to Halfords then? Or can I get them online? A quick google didn't really show much.
Anything else you recommend doing?
Cheers

Hi Jack welcome to the site bud, nice to see another Leicester lad on here One of the favourite cheap/free mods is de-badging, also if your any good with a spray can then colour coding is fairly cheap and very effective. I've got some parts for sale in a thread on here you might want to take a look at and i'm only 2 junctions up the M1 from you lol

Cheers I saw the de-badging, tempted to have a go at it, Main thing I want to do it sort the rear bumper, stuck with this currently:
Unfortunatly one of the few (Possibly many) things I cannot do is respraying, I have never been able to, so If I do get anything it needs to be sprayed to the colour of the car currently, and I'm not even sure what the exact colour is!
I shall pop down and have a look at the thread, Cheers!

Hmm this is the first 206 I've seen with non colour-coded rear bottom bumper. Go to paint shop and get that bumper painted. Phase 2 boot strip colour coded also will look tons better.

I am yet to come across another 206 (Even an old one) with a non-colour coded bumper. I do want to get it sprayed, but I need to know the colour and can you respray the plastic ones or?
Also, What do you mean 180? and all that talk? Noob handguide?

Pretty much, not a front bumper tho you'd have to fit sports style wings (like on a xs or gti) if you wanted a gti front bumper

I can hope?
Probably wont happen then, Money and time, and I am short on both!
Any idea what kind of red the car might be? Been searching around, cant find a definite answer, its never been resprayed, so its as it came from the factory, just need to fine the colour.
