#1: Onyx Black and Onsidian Black different? Author: Paddy1795, Location: CarlislePosted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 4:39 pm ---- Hey guys,
Earlier i read that Obsidian black (EXL) and Onyx black (EXY) are the same colour, could anyone confirm this for me because I'm struggling to find parts in Obsidian and I havnt seen many black peugeots around to compare my car and theirs haha.
I also read that the year could make a difference, so I'm trying to find parts for a 53 plate 1.1 (first car) if that's of any help!
Thanks for any replies,
Paddy!

EXL is metallic Onyx black (phase 2)
Noir Obsidien is EXL in a spray can (the French name for metallic Onyx black)
Your car (53 plate) is EXL (metallic) - phase 2

So if I was to buy a body part from a Onyx Black GTI it wouldn't stand out on my car? Obviously as long as it was a phase 2 GTI haha.
Thanks a lot!
Paddy!

It could be any parts, I'm looking for both front wings and a spoiler! I've found them in EXL but a little expensive so was hoping I could maybe buy in onyx black, which seems more common

Spoiler would be okay in EXY, but the wings would look wrong.
My sideskirts were EXL on my EXY GTi (2002), and looked quite good (mainly because EXL looks 'dusty' on an EXY car).
Any '53-plate onwards black 206 will be EXL, so just keep your eyes open at the scrappies/on ebay/on here!

Cheers man!
I'm seriously keeping an eye out, it seems a rare colour up north! I'm going to the scrappiest very week and checking on eBay most days, problem is because they know its not common, they charge more!
