#1: Bigbenj_08's 206 Thread. Author: Bigbenj_08, Location: CardiffPosted: Sun Jun 13, 2010 2:26 pm ---- Well I just spent as mush of the day as possible cleaning up the 206 and I reckon she looks pretty tasty
Only managed to wax the bonnet before it started to bloody rain though!
Have a list of stuff i've got planned and should hopefully start getting some mods on payday/insurance renewal at the end of this month
Plan on a carbon look bonnet intake, black angel eyes and smoked M3 rears look wise.
Also want to debadge, and spray the front and rear lions gloss black!
Think the rest of it will stay standard tbh!
"performance" wise, planning a set of coilovers but only want the car dropped around 30-40mm so i'm not sure whats best yet.
Induction kit is going on almost immediately, and looking for a performance cat back exhaust too!
Oh and if anyone would be kind enough to make me a sig i'd be realy grateful! Last edited by Bigbenj_08 on Thu Jul 01, 2010 11:27 am; edited 1 time in total

I've done mine today, snow foamed, washed, clayed, snow foamed, washed, polished, waxed one side and it threw it down, waited til it stopped waxed all of it bar the rear end and it rained again.....

well yeah.. thats why I said i'm not sure what will be best lol. I suppose if I got coilovers and wanted to go lower... I could lol.
Need to get one of those foam lance things, would save a whole lot of effort!
Tis getting clayed next time I wash it though

Looks rather tidy for the price, went for a green filter too which i'm glad about. The raceland one looks fairly restrictive and small in comparison!
I've also got a new lion for the front which i'm spraying black when I get chance!
Hopefully next month or 2 should see the car being dropped by 50mm or so which should be nice!

#6: Re: Bigbenj_08's 206 Thread. Author: Bigbenj_08, Location: CardiffPosted: Thu Jul 01, 2010 11:05 am ---- not yet... done a trial fitting though.. sort of layed everything out over the engine and can't see why it wouldn't fit!

Dammit I see what you mean now... the alu pipe will fowl on the battery/battery tray and the induction cover is going to fowl on pipes and cover my dipstick.

What an a**e!
Bit of a bummer isnt it! I presume you have the long thin airbox? As the xsi has a square one like the gti, and has a bit of a bigger gap between rocker cover and battery.

WHY DIDN"T YOU TELL ME!! haha.
Did you get an induction kit then or just a filter?
#10: Re: Bigbenj_08's 206 Thread. Author: Bigbenj_08, Location: CardiffPosted: Fri Dec 17, 2010 5:40 pm ---- Wow... its been a long time since I updated this!
Haven't actually modded the car in any way, just been maintaining and looking after her
I never did find an induction kit that would fit so I kinda gave up
Anyways, pic from today... fun in the snow!

#12: Re: Bigbenj_08's 206 Thread. Author: Bigbenj_08, Location: CardiffPosted: Mon Apr 25, 2011 6:21 pm ---- Been a while... lol.
Never did manage to fit an induction kit, eventually went for a k+n replacement panel filter!
Everything else is still standard atm, any funds I did have were taken by me moving to Cardiff a while back!
Anyways, quick pic after a blast round the awesome roads in the breacon beacons!
