#1: Aegean Blue 180 - few pics Author: lisa206, Location: BirminghamPosted: Fri Jul 17, 2015 4:22 pm ---- Hey all, haven't posted any pics of the 180 yet, so just thought I'd add a few.
So this was my car when I first bought it in December
I have recently changed the front lights
Final pic of the car so far , after just finishing doing the wheels grey and the calipers red
Next on the list is to get the car lowered. Also, will be getting wind deflectors and masked front crystal lights.

Always thought that 180's could do with being lowered from the front as the rear is the perfect height. Will you be splitting a pair of headlights or have you found a set?

Thanks , I used red caliper paint from halfrauds and a little brush. I also think the back sits ok but the front is too high. I have a set of lights that I will be splitting, but I will keep looking for a set that are already done, because I would really like to avoid masking them myself. :/

It's funny because the overall the car sits ok but then you look at the front and think how can it be so high. Keep a look out on ebay too, that's where I found my set. They were on a car being broken for parts and got them for a decent price as the guy didn't know what they were really worth. Have you got aftermarket rear lights by any chance?

Lol, thanks for the opinion. I personally don't like box standard looking cars, only changed the colour of the wheels, callipers and changed the lights since having it. I like to be a bit different to every other car round my area, like a slight difference so people know which 206 is mine. Opinions welcome though

You should use the paint , it is good to be honest. I had it recommended to me and it was a good choice imo. I'll definately keep an eye on eBay then, thanks. Yes the rear lights are aftermarket m3 style lights

They are ford graphite grey , they suit it better than black wheels would.
