#1: Thought it was about time.... Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 2:00 pm ---- I posted some new pictures of how my car is looking now. It has gone through some changes since last year.
The work was carried out the week before The Fast Show with the wheels being finshed just 12 hours before getting to Santa Pod.
I have made one more addition since then
De-Cat off the turbo 2.5 inch pipe straight through to rear box. Sounds really nice now and you can hear the turbo a lot more. MPG hasnt really suffered which is good as well.
There are some more things planned but I need to get some more funds.

#7: Re: Thought it was about time.... Author: Jayde, Location: BrightonPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 2:33 pm ---- Looking good Did you buy new badges when you sprayed the rear peugeot and 206 writing? or re stick them? If you re-stuck them.. what did you use?
#8: Re: Thought it was about time.... Author: mattievrs, Location: LeicesterPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 2:33 pm ---- The anthracite scirrocos set the calipers off really nicely. The wheels look superb in that colour on a blue car. Also loving the little yellow tie ins on the lower grill.
Lowering it?
#9: Re: Thought it was about time.... Author: mattievrs, Location: LeicesterPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 2:35 pm ---- Also. have you thought about spraying the wheel badges and nut covers yellow or another colour?

looking good though mate. still going for the "fins" you told me about before?
#27: Re: Thought it was about time.... Author: rudebwoi93, Location: LondonPosted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:42 am ---- Have your crystals been fly-eyed? I say this because they seem to tie in with the darker parts of your car, I would have suggested masked black ones but that touch needed to make them less bright and out of place is already there.... I think!
Edit: Also, what colour have you painted your front badge, rear badges and alloys? - I think getting your mirrors done in that colour would look cool, and be different from everyones 'gloss black'!! Last edited by rudebwoi93 on Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:45 am; edited 1 time in total

Did you buy new badges when you sprayed the rear peugeot and 206 writing? or re stick them? If you re-stuck them.. what did you use?
