How is it rally? It's a work in progress so as soon as I can get a job there will be major changes, but at the moment, progress is slow |
1. the speedlines are often used on 206 rally cars
2. the carbon look bonnet
3. the height

The speedlines were free, the bonnet was a present and the ride height is standard lol. As I said, it's work in progress and progress is slow. It's going into the garage next week to get the door handles sprayed and the all the chips removed

ive just bought coilover for around 130 delivered so not too pricey and a few members on here have the same ones
as for an install... probably looking £300 if you get it brand new and do it yourself or get someone you know to help you and could save money by going second hand

I know coilovers aren't overly expensive, but when I've only got £40 a week from the job centre, which they are in the process of trying to stop, every penny matters at the moment

the 205's speedlines always make me think of rally cars, and because its riding quite high still

Car is back from the garage, been machine polished, waxed and valeted throughout. They also resprayed my front grill, although I wish they had told me first so I could have got the mesh bit done black, oh well
Before




After
Whole front bumper resprayed to remove flaking paint and stone chips
Front grill resprayed to remove my shoddy DIY spraying


Side strips resprayed to cover flaking
Door handles colour coded because, be honest, it just needed doing


Sills resprayed to remove scratches


Valeted and waxed because it needed doing

Also had some stuff done in the service, new suspension parts I think, my girlfriend mentioned there was a knocking noise, turns out the "insert name of suspension part" had bust
