Has the strut brace made a noticeable difference to the handling?

nice car mate!
just a hint to try and get you tinted rear lights shiny!
get a machine polisher and use a polish like AG Super Resin Polish on them! using a smooth polishing pad and them lights will shine up real nice. that will finish the rear off rather than the lights being a matte effect

Don't mean to hijack, but here's my smoked headlights effort...

The car is Photoshopped but the headlights are real. They're standard crystals covered in dark smoke tint film from lamin-x.co.uk.

The one big downside is vision, although to be fair I was using yellow headlight bulbs that were about 4 quid off eBay . I have to say if I had another 206 I'd probably do the same again, although I'd maybe consider the lighter smoke film aswell.

red rim tape from ebay... about £3? simple easy and effective.
the film tinted front lights look nice. happy with mine though, no problems with lighting or mot either.
