Hey all

Here goes, I've had my 1.4 HDi since March bought it with just under 80k on the clock completely standard '52' Plate.

Within a week of owning it I got hold of some Scirroco's with tyres on for a good deal so on they went Smile

A couple of weeks later a GTi rear bumper in my colour cropped up so I bought that.

Then about a week after that a GTi front bumper in my colour came along, I could'not believe my luck! Thumbs Up

Then my Crackshaft Pulley decided it was going to make a nasty racket so that halted mods somewhat due to it costing £167 to put right Crying or Very sad

The French Car show came along before I knew it and I bought some Angel Eyes from DeadEyePaul (cheers mate Smile

) and some pressed style number plates.

Some track shots from FCS Smile

My car was really taking shape now so I booked it in for it's first major service in the time I had owned it costing a whopping £243 Surprised

this also halted mods somewhat but I soon recovered Wink

After having seen some of the fantastic work gone in to our beloved 206's at FCS it gave me some inspiration for my interior so out came the spray can, I always thought this looked quite tacky but after having done it I really like the look

Then my old Saxo bucket seats that have been sat in my garage for years came out and after much mucking about between me and a few mates they were 'persuaded' to go in Wink

My armrest for that added motorway comfort Rolling Eyes

Then I finally got round to having my coilover kit fitted, at long last

She's down 40mm and it was totally worth it Very Happy

you might also notice my alloys are now white too Thumb Up

While it was being lowered my mechanic fitted my Brembo discs and Mintex pads because my old discs were close to shattering Surprised

whoops!

It's going back in the next few weeks to have my back box fabricated to fit as it's from a GTi fitment and needs some modification to go on, other than that though she's nearly complete Thumbs Up

Next on the list is;

De-wipering the rear
Finish off colour coding the bump strips
Black vinyl-ing the roof
Boost guage Cool

De-cat
FMIC Wink

Custom re-map

So from this

To this in less than 6 months

And just a nice scenic shot with a little colour editing Smile

Thank you for reading, comments welcome Smile

Thanks! Yeah spoiler and CC'ing isn't an immediate mod I have in mind to be honest, they will come but as a last thing of the list sort of job

Cheers guys, yeah I'm gonna see if I can get hold of some Clear Side Repeaters, they will probably come with the colour coding when that gets done and yeah mattymj, I did notice your car a lot at FCS couldn't stop looking at it to be honest so yeah I'd say your white wheels were a big inspiration hehe
