#1: New to 206's Author: Jack123, Location: Earl Shilton UKPosted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 3:53 pm ---- New to my 206, And basically I just have a few questions, Oh and I have a 1999 T Reg 1.1 L
Window Wipers - What damn size are they? and where can I get them? I need some new ones (I have seen the bosche aero ones on here and love the look of them, But I can only find pairs of 19" ones, and mine are different sized?)
Simple mods + tuning?: I know this has probably been asked 10000 times, However the search has thrown up nothing relevant, I have a small budget, Say £300, With a bit of leeway and I would like to just make some changes to really make it my own, I have a new headunit coming due to the stock one failing (Thanks Harry!) I am going to be getting new Air filters, Pollen filters, Oil filters etc, But what else can I do thats not too drastic (And on my budget!) Inside and out!
Cheers for the help, and I apologize if it has been asked before
Jack

Don't waste your money on tuning
Servicing, gen parts only from Peugeot. they are cheap enough

I took a look in there, Didn't notice it till after I posted, Blind as a bat sometimes.
Anything else you recommend doing?
Cheers!

Bosch spark plugs only

I've got some parts for sale in a thread on here you might want to take a look at and i'm only 2 junctions up the M1 from you lol

Cheers I saw the de-badging, tempted to have a go at it, Main thing I want to do it sort the rear bumper, stuck with this currently:
Unfortunatly one of the few (Possibly many) things I cannot do is respraying, I have never been able to, so If I do get anything it needs to be sprayed to the colour of the car currently, and I'm not even sure what the exact colour is!
I shall pop down and have a look at the thread, Cheers!

Brian (who's selling his 180) his 206 he had before it had the grey plastic bumper
#10: Re: New to 206's Author: Jack123, Location: Earl Shilton UKPosted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:08 pm ---- I am yet to come across another 206 (Even an old one) with a non-colour coded bumper. I do want to get it sprayed, but I need to know the colour and can you respray the plastic ones or?
Also, What do you mean 180? and all that talk? Noob handguide?
#11: Re: New to 206's Author: phillspug, Location: LeicestershirePosted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:19 pm ---- Sorry dude the 206 gti 180, its the big dog of 206's lols. You might be better getting a 2nd bumper from the scrappy, are you anywhere near wigston there's a good scrapyard there
#12: Re: New to 206's Author: Jack123, Location: Earl Shilton UKPosted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:36 pm ---- Earl Shilton mate
Looking on fleabay and such now, Guessing from reading arounf GTI parts would still fit, right?
#13: Re: New to 206's Author: phillspug, Location: LeicestershirePosted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:39 pm ---- Pretty much, not a front bumper tho you'd have to fit sports style wings (like on a xs or gti) if you wanted a gti front bumper

I can hope?
Probably wont happen then, Money and time, and I am short on both!
Any idea what kind of red the car might be? Been searching around, cant find a definite answer, its never been resprayed, so its as it came from the factory, just need to fine the colour.
#15: Re: New to 206's Author: phillspug, Location: LeicestershirePosted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:53 pm ---- Can't help with that dude there used to be a guide to colour/codes i'm pretty sure that there is only one shade of red like your's tho
