well im bored so i thought i would do a thread on my car from when i first got it as i never did one on the old site.
so here goes.
This is my baby the day i bought her.
i had planned to keep it standard for a while but guess what, i found the info bible  lol so that soon changed.
the first mods to come where to respray the arches off my old 206 and for some unknow reason i put some god awful lights on that didnt suit the car atall. but i only have one pic of the lights. also had my wheels resprayed and fitted a new front grille
in primer
all finished
front grille and a bonnet vent
crappy lights and arches
then i decided that the ph2 rears were going back on.
also bought a GSR induction kit to replace the pipercross one that was in.
then came a rarther expensive mod, but well worth it.
this is the day i goot it back lowered (yes i know its filthy) and at some point i added the mud flaps.
the following day i cleaned it and took proper photos.
then i decided i wanted to tint my lights.
before id polished them
after
then decided i didnt want arches anymore and i debaged the rear just leaving the 180 badge. these pics were taken on the day of my first meet hence the reason for shiny shiny, lol
then came the new headlights to go with the black theme my car was taking.
then another expensive but worth it mod was my exhaust. SS cat back system.
and getting to the most recent is my new alloys and also black alloy fuel cap.
so thats my car and how it stands right now sorry if ive bored you.
will

Love it mate! Colour looks excellent when its clean, really deep! Only thing I don't agree with is the lights. But each to their own. Did you refurb the alloys yourself?
