#1: Diablo gti project Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sat Oct 23, 2010 1:51 pm ---- I bought my first 206 sept 09.
It's been trouble free so far (fingers crossed).
The bay was looking a mess so I sprayed the engine cover and tb bit.
Then I noticed the s***ty sound deadening sagging on the fresh paint, so ripped the bugger off.
I then painted the engine cover again.
Then my rear axle gave up the ghost.
So I replaced it with a 180 axle and lowered in 30mm at the same time.
I then got hold of some black lexarse lights.
They looked "ok" for a day or two?!?
So I sprayed them black.
For some reason it had a non gti rear bumper, so I've swapped that too.
I also got hold of a ph2 boot strip and ph2 washers.
The front was then lowered 30mm on eibach springs I bought off meady.
I've sprayed the front badge
Removed rear badges
And I've also sprayed the bumper strips ford panther black, along with the mirror caps and door mouldings.
Then I replaced the drivers door and wing due to dents.
I then got some ph2 lights
Exhaust had dropped so that was welded back up.
Then today I had the opportunity to swap my crystals and ph2 lights for chrome angels and black led rears.
I also fitten some 206info stickers in the front and rear screens.
And that's about it for now (that I can remember)
I took this pic today after swapping the light with another 206info member.
(mines the front one)
I'll update as a when
Cheers.

#4: Re: Diablo gti project Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sat Oct 23, 2010 4:31 pm ---- I think they are just called black LED's. I've seen afew on eBay for about £125.

#6: Re: Diablo gti project Author: RicH, Location: South East UKPosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 5:53 am ---- Nice improvements
#7: Re: Diablo gti project Author: gavstar, Location: BedsPosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 12:00 pm ---- I hate to say it as I dont like bad-mouthing other peoples mods...but I think it looked better with the standard lights...Phase 2's would be even better
#8: Re: Diablo gti project Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 1:17 pm ---- I did have ph2 for a week or so.
Lol, I don't mind, I'll take the good with the bad.
#9: Re: Diablo gti project Author: gavstar, Location: BedsPosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 1:23 pm ---- Personally id say go back to Phase 2, suit the colour scheme alot better, the black/chrome/LED looks out of place in my opinion, other than that, awesome looking car
#10: Re: Diablo gti project Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:14 pm ---- Small update, the ph1 rears are back on.
Also, I spotted a set of 17" vortex alloys with mint pzeros for £100, so needless to say I ripped the chavs arms off!
They do need a recon, but its my job so I have no issues making them like new again.
#11: Re: Diablo gti project Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 11:13 am ---- Bought some 16" nims off gavstar and took them to work yesterday and painted them ford partner black.
#12: Re: Diablo gti project Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:21 pm ---- You car has had a rear accident, non sports rear bumper i spy
#13: Re: Diablo gti project Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:31 pm ---- I reversed into my brick wall (see brick wall in last picture, it ends early!) anyway I hit it and needed a new bumper, the non sports did the job until it was replaced.
