#1: Antix ~ The 'eternal' Flame modifications! Author: Antix, Location: WorcesterPosted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 12:57 pm ---- The Flame is my 2004 [54-plate] 206 GTi 180 in Flamenco Red.
Trying [as we all do] to have a more personalised car, the Flame has been subjected to many photoshops, change of headlights, rear lights, wheels, grilles, and side strips over the years!
Day One! - August 2009, first day of ownership.
Smoothed boot, Graphite morette lights, Graphite Vortex alloy wheels, debadged, Graphite front badge.
Carried-over from my previous 206 GTi - white vents with red vanes.
By Xmas 2009 - Carbon-effect wing badges [S16, to go with the numberplate], carbon fibre front badge, matt black chrome bonnet vents, silver Vortex alloys (later replaced with Graphites), red S16 front badge, red lion badges on wheels, smoked m3-style led rear lights, graphite fuel filler cap, smoked side indicators.
January 2010 - Graphite front grille, Graphite side strips, graphite front foglights, Flamenco & graphite engine cover/battery cover/fusebox cover, Carbon fibre mirror caps, Graphite B-pillar trims, red front badge, blue LED dials, 206CC red/black leather steering wheel [currently re-leathering it], red leather gear gaiter & red 180 sticker on black steering wheel, de-spoilered standard GTi 180 rear tailgate, colour-coordinated rear mudflaps.
Feb/March 2010 - Nimrod alloys, new body graphics [in Graphite], to be ready for Fast Show in March.
How The Flame looks at the moment:

Hi Matty - nah, Nimmies are just on while the Vortex are getting new tyres & relacquered!
PS: the Foudre alloys are still on the 306
#5: Re: Antix ~ The 'eternal' Flame modifications! Author: mattievrs, Location: LeicesterPosted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 1:02 pm ---- looking great as always ant! One question though, why the new non smoothed boot?
#6: Re: Antix ~ The 'eternal' Flame modifications! Author: wagsy206, Location: Coatbridge, LanarkshirePosted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 1:04 pm ---- that looks awesome ant. liking the co-ordination. red and graphite. graphite is sometimes an overlooked colour, but i like it.
especially with the nimrods, im really thinking of getting a set for the SW again.

bloody tailgate!!! - I bought it off an '05-plate red 206 SE (knowing it would be the same as The Flame)... turned-out it was a phase 1 tailgate in Cherry red rather than Flamenco! LOL
But it was cheap

#10: Re: Antix ~ The 'eternal' Flame modifications! Author: Ruffy_206, Location: BristolPosted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 1:06 pm ---- looks good as allways. but also why get rid of the boot lid?
one suggestion maybe a graphite phase two boot strip.
