This is my 206 ive done a few changes since ive had it but only small things that i think make a big difference.
Lowering is definitely next on the cards and then a possibly a janspeed catback.
So it started like this
Pretty standard as you can see
Bought some aero wipers only really because the ones on there were dry and ripped, but it is a cheap but effective upgrade
I then got something done that i think personally every gti spec should have came with from the factory, colour coded bump strips.
Black strips looked good in the 90s..
And some phase 2 rears.
Slight crease down the rear quarter, i will be getting it filled and resprayed and at the same time having the alloys refurbed in a dark grey'ish colour.
But thats all to come id rather get the exhaust first if im honest.
Thats it for now thanks for looking  welcome any comments and ideas you might think of

I wish I had done the above to my old moonstone, would have had funds then to boost performance.
Best colour for the gti 137

a nice janspeed system for the 180 will fit mate, if you want, check out my old moonstone project thread, it may give you some ideas

yeah i agree i seen that project all through got some ideas from that especially the wheel colour, its just abit on the expensive side for that janspeed exhaust as i know in reality im not going to have this car for more than a year as ill want a gti180 or something with boost maybe?
so i thought just a cheapy quick mod take out the center silencer might give me abit more grunt : o not sure if it will make a difference
