#3: Re: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon Jan 02, 2012 5:17 am ---- Not a lot really lol, Just a few little things and eventually a small boot build I need to get my vortex's refurbed for my summer wheels and that about it lol.
#4: Re: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Matt, Posted: Mon Jan 02, 2012 8:29 am ---- Looked better before imo.
Edit: Loose the badge less grill and the cc'd splitter. Last edited by Matt on Mon Jan 02, 2012 1:46 pm; edited 1 time in total
#5: Re: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Lowercase, Location: East SussexPosted: Mon Jan 02, 2012 11:25 am ---- loose the spliter imo. like the seats though, just needs some slamage
#6: Re: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: michaelbishop, Location: IrelandPosted: Mon Jan 02, 2012 11:51 am ---- Looking good, I think if you take a picture of the splitter from a different angle it might look better, I think the head on picture is what's making it look iffy. Rest of it looks well!!

#8: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Frost, Location: OxfordPosted: Tue Jan 10, 2012 4:06 pm ---- are your lights OE? or are they aftermarket equipment? also they look quite bright, what bulbs have you got or are they HID?
#9: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2012 4:08 pm ---- They are devil eyes. I think its the smd sidlights making them look really bright. I only have osram nightbreaker+ bulbs fitted.
#10: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Frost, Location: OxfordPosted: Thu Jan 12, 2012 7:12 am ---- where do you get the devil eyes from?
#11: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Thu Jan 12, 2012 7:18 am ---- Ebay.

#15: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sat Jan 21, 2012 6:00 am ---- Front looks awful.
Get a normal grille, lose the splitter and the odd silver wiper cap
#16: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: hayes_ctfc, Location: CheltenhamPosted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:32 am ---- If someone said to me "I have a modified estate car" I'd say they're bonkers and mad, but this doesn't look too shabby for an SW.

#19: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Wed Feb 01, 2012 4:15 pm ---- Thanks Im not sure yet. I have some lowering springs but i think ill wait until ive finished everything else
#20: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: saiefovech, Location: TuNisIePosted: Thu Feb 02, 2012 1:10 am ---- its nice , what Tyre size you fitted ? and if you get the splitter off could be better
#21: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Thu Feb 02, 2012 4:22 am ---- The tyre size is 205/50/16. They are my winter wheels though, the vortexs will be going on after they have been refurbed and when the weather picks up
#22: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: BioCustoms, Location: LeedsPosted: Thu Feb 23, 2012 4:33 pm ---- looking well mate its nice to see another estate on here you don get many >>>> ignore the haters
#23: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Fri Feb 24, 2012 7:47 am ---- lol Thanks
Im hoping to get it squeaky clean ready for the shows. I think im going to stick to something clean and OEM looking.
I've put the badged front grill back on and the upper SP grills. So I've got the complete SP set fitted (Except arches) but im not sure if I want the arches or not.

#28: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Wed Mar 21, 2012 11:13 am ---- I've got a steering wheel lol.
#29: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Ghosty, Location: WiltshirePosted: Wed Mar 21, 2012 11:41 am ---- the only few issues i have with your car are:
its an estate, i never have liked estates
you should have gotten the chrome version of the led side repeaters (i have the same ones as you), would have suited the car better.
besides that it looks good, dont let others get you down as i have said on many a forum, its your car and your tastes, no matter what others think. and of course i will have oppinions, like im sure everyone has on my car. but then im doing it my way, as thats what i want.
also devil eyes are cool, just not sure about the light output, ty for the pics.
#30: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Wed Mar 21, 2012 1:06 pm ---- lol. nothing i can do about it being an estate im afraid
i did bid on some silver ones but when the auction ended they said they only had black left. they were cheap so i agreed to have them and i can always sell them when i come accross some silver ones
im happy with it. its very standard looking now with little mods im just working on keeping it clean
#31: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:18 am ---- Vortexs are in the bodyshop, should hopefully get them back Tomorrow or Saturday. Will post pics when they are done
#32: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: craigdmjv, Location: WiltshirePosted: Thu Apr 05, 2012 1:18 pm ---- you should put the gt bumpers on it mate and do bumpstrips same colour as wheels

#39: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: marc206, Location: Bourne, LincsPosted: Wed Apr 25, 2012 12:46 pm ---- pretty sure i saw you the other day in this, could be mistaken though
#40: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Wed Apr 25, 2012 2:54 pm ---- The gutter strips are in glitter silver Just for some reason its lighter lol. Thats halford paint for ya
Unless you were in Peterborough, you didnt see me lol.

#49: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Mon May 07, 2012 2:33 pm ---- I don't know why but I just think the Vortex's don't suit it, They just look a bit out of place IMO. I think it may be because of the lower profile tyres and the biggish gap though. Other wise Nath looking s**t hot.
#50: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Lowercase, Location: East SussexPosted: Mon May 07, 2012 2:33 pm ---- bit too 'much' for my liking, loose the eyebrows, arches and silver splitter imo. looks a bit like you didnt know what to do with it so just put everything on it.
not meant in any offensive way, just looks far too busy to me
wheels and stance are spot on though, maybe even a bit lower
#51: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 2:38 pm ---- Thanks for your opinions, I can see what your saying
I think if it was a bit lower then Vortexs would look better with it.
There is alot on it, and I sort of felt the same way. But it grew on me, its no different from alot of peoples cars on here
To me, I think the front bumper would look really short if I took the splitter off, and I quite like the eyebrows
#52: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Mon May 07, 2012 2:53 pm ---- Can you get aftermarket rear light's for the SW?
#53: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 3:00 pm ---- Not that Im aware of The only think Ive seen are masks from FK but they dont look that good.
Cant find the link
#54: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Mon May 07, 2012 3:02 pm ---- It's a shame, Might get a set and have a play with them see if I can CC them or something, Would certainly be different.
#55: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 3:07 pm ---- Yeah I was thinking of doing something, like getting some motorbike lenses and cutting some holes and putting them in and colour coding the rest, a bit like rear morettes, but sw rear lights arent cheap
The reflectors arent an issue though as they are in the bumper
#56: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Matt, Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 4:20 pm ---- In my opinion:
You need a cc'd boot fill
Loose the arches because the rear ones don't look like the fit properly (back edge)
Loose the silver splitter and find a black one the same
Loose the eyebrows or have them same colour as the car, the glitter paint just looks like a poor colour match
Other than that it looks nice. Think the vortex make it look a bit more sporty and a bit less "family" if that makes sense lol

#60: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: shell-vt, Location: durhamPosted: Tue Jul 10, 2012 1:48 am ---- looking good.. but will you be trimming them rear arches down so they sit properly
#61: Re: Abzynthe: 206 SW Quicksilver Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Tue Jul 10, 2012 7:02 am ---- I dont think I will be, It doesnt look that bad IMO, plus it will make them easier to sell in furture if I leave them
