hi, as some of you may know i bought mr and mrs kencos 206. iv done a few things since owning her so i thought i should start a project thread.
this is how i got her,
i then added some black masked headlights courtesy of b47ton
form christmas off my girlfriend i had a bonnet bra and a debadged grill which is yet to be painted.
i have also added some led sidelights, 6000k hid's, 2 jbl gt5-12 subs with a fli monoblock, and i also have some 205 gti alloys which will be fitted once i have re-painted them.
any comments criticism welcome, it is a forum after all so you can say what you like, i wont get offended.

How much for the Vortexs?
You have a lot to do to beat the Kencos effort with her, she looked lovely (and low) @ the summer meet!

the paint code is ets, i havnt seen many this colour.
sorry tom, but im quite fond of the vortex's, i know the kencos did a very good job and it still shows now, you can see inside and out that money has been spent, its just a shame more of the goodies were not in the car when i got it. i have been offered the gt bumper but im not sure wether to go for it or to just fit a leon splitter to my bumper now.

Prefered it before you messed with it to be honest. Bonnet bras remind me of my mum and tablecloths. Take something nice and shiney and cover it in a crap bit of cloth to keep it that way, ensuring its never seen (and hence who cares if its shiney or not).

I'd ditch the bra and get the GT bumper. It looked epic before.

im gonna give jazz a ring now and see if shes still got it, what do you think about the grill, iv had people tell me too leave it that colour and then other people say just paint under the lights and leave the centre black.

I'd have to colour code it, but i'm a perfectionist.
It's up to you at the end of the day, but it looks unfinished as it is.
Either colour code it or paint under the lights only.

Ditch the bra, paint the badgeless grille silver + fill the bonnet notch and fit the GT bumper with LCR splitter and you're onto a winner!
P.S. Also add a standard black wiper mechanism cover.
