Hi, Im new to the forum and recently got my 206.
Shes a 5 door 1.9 LX D which I rescued form the local scrappy!!
Here's a quick pic I took when I got her home (sorry about the crap quality, taken with iphone)

Dont worry about the lexus lights, they came with the car and there not there for long!!
Firts things first, gave it a much needed wash inside and out (sorry no pics) and got my alloys on;

painted the calipers and drums with this



and then I tided up the bay;


then I set about debadging, done the back just waiting for a friend to have some time so he can fill in the front,
thats all for now, let us know what you think!!

You painted the drums red?? Black!!
Yeah I think you will have to remove the vents to fit that in there, not sure how easy that is to do, im sure somebody will tell you, there are a few who have done it on here.

Yeah red lol, I wanted them to stand out. I was think about doing them green first but couldn't find any paint didnt want to use a can!
Its definitely not going to be easy but I guess im going to have to do some research first, im alright with wiring it in, just need to find somewhere to put it.
