#1: NorthantsBen's 180 Project, :D :D Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Tue Jan 28, 2014 3:44 pm ---- My 180 project, already had few bits done when i got it (lowered etc)
day i picked it up..........
not done much visually, it just been on stuff you cant see so far. (cambelt, exhaust, bearings, general servicing ect). only visual things are wind deflectors, new plates and a good wash lol.
only got few things planned so far, not going ott with it.

Sound system is a worthwhile upgrade, just make sure you sound deaden the doors are they tend to rattle alot!
yer have owned a few 206's very familiar with the rattles they make (even without the music on) haha.
Yeah, they rattle alot. Going to sound deaden my car this summer as Flashband will not stick when its cold!

#13: Re: NorthantsBen's 180 Project, 19/3/14 update :D :D Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Wed Mar 19, 2014 10:38 am ---- few little updates.
1st a cold air feed pipe as the intake temp was far too hot (filter came with car) already a big improvement but proper test will be when i take it on my usual route to work, will see what temp is then, painted the end black to help hide it behind grill.
with bumper back on.
also got some morettes.....
and finally got a phone holder for when using torque/music and calls, works through the headunit as soon as its docked. tried to mount it in the ash tray area but phone just too tall, even with some cutting. ideally would love to mould in but i have no time to anything like that atm. also wire needs hiding, another days job
also mounted some LED's into the rear lights in some empty slots......

#15: Re: NorthantsBen's 180 Project, 19/3/14 update :D :D Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Wed Mar 19, 2014 2:45 pm ---- I agree with Iain, morettes definitely improve the look of the car, worked wonders on mine when I fitted morettes from masked lights

It has just some 50/60mm lowering springs and rear adjusted to match.
