#1: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: PugJH, Location: NorthantsPosted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 2:04 pm ---- Ok so i used to have a thread like this before which was alot bigger and more detail but i nicked this from another site i used to use, i hope its all the same as i just copy, pasted.
Noticed some pictures dont work, i shall update this later and sort these out.
This is how my car started out, normal 1.1 style and i wouldn't have changed a thing if i hadnt of found this 206info, the amount of people just updating there cars instead of full blown bodykits, so i started looking into what i could do.
1st item i got was a fuel cap, as i never liked mine.
I got an extra set of door handles in the hope of getting them sprayed, but after finding out how much the garage wanted for spraying them i decided to do it myself, never done it before so was worried about the outcome, but still i carried on and thought about spraying my side strips, and after having them off my car for 3 days while i primed, sprayed and lacquered them it was time to put the finished items back on.
IMAGE:
I purchased some items from ebay as i knew i wanted sports extras and not aftermarket stuff.
I got the rear strip off in the pic ready to spray.
Then i went all out and thought id put my new sports bumper on with the honeycomb grille and the new upper grill bit with the badge on.
You can't see in this photo but its got a scratch on the passenger side trim, which matches my wing scratch from previous owner, so looks like it was done at same time lol.
Weeks later i got myself some alloys *finally*
I then got some new interior bits
Gearknob, Steering wheel, Full interior
Before:
After:
When i got my car the passengers side wing had a dent in it, and it was starting to annoy me, so i thought while im gettin a new wing, i might aswel get GTi wings. So i got some from a member of info from scotland who got them sprayed for me by Ecosse, and shipped down to me
Before:
During:
After:
5. Sports Sp arches
All of this has been done over the last year of owning my car, and i have moved this thread over from 206info with a few changes so sorry if its all over the show.
Most recent picture:
I dont have the bonnet bra on now, and still need mirror caps, this is before White Masked Valeos
Cheers

#19: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 11:48 am ---- Love the door cards and sears Jared,
They from a cc or Somthing?
#20: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: PugJH, Location: NorthantsPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 11:50 am ---- Yeah, i got the whole cc interior and i had a spare full leather interior anyway, so i used the normaly rear seats from that and the front seats and door cards from the cc.
Looking to get rear leather doorcards aswel, and fit the glovebox lid, but its got a lock on it, so gotta get key cut for it.
This is how i have front leather seats for sale, and gti doorcards.
How's the white/blue wip coming along???
#21: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 11:54 am ---- You still got the fronts spare you say mate?
#22: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 12:44 pm ---- Leather is the way forward big improvement, nice and cold in the morning though

#25: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: Lecktorious, Location: ScotlandPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 3:28 pm ---- Still a 1.1 Jared? Thought you'd have fired a GiT lump in there by now!
#26: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: PugJH, Location: NorthantsPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 3:46 pm ---- i've had about 3 chances to wack a gti engine in there, but each time i ring around for insurance quote they want stupid money.
Getting the engine in etc is cheap enough, but insurance is mad right now, plus i travel like 70miles a day, petrol would start to eat away at my pockets.
Maybe i will slowly get some gti parts together, like axle etc then one day just do the dam thing lol.
Then it would be a weekend car or something.
but short answer, yea, its still a 1.1 HA

Not in my 206 as the seat heaters take care of the cold mornings

Only just see this.
I sold my gti engine for £150 Preplexed and £300 mulitplexed
Second gti i had was paid for by the engine
#30: Re: PugJH: My Flamenco Red WIP *Update Pg2* Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Fri May 06, 2011 1:58 pm ---- Would insurance ask for less if you dropped a 1.6 8v in there instead? Would be a straight swap then and more economical (edit: over gti) yet still a 30hp increase
