Colour Coding, Vent, Lexus Lights, Chrome Hoops, + SP Grille

Dave M · Post by **Dave M** » Sat Apr 19, 2003 1:40 pm

Hiya guys/gals,

I've had my car for just over two weeks now, and no problems at all.(the Rattle that I reported earlier turned out to be self inflicted. Managed to locate it before I went to the dealership, and repaired it. It would have been very embarrasing otherwise

)

After seeing some of your cars on here(simply awesome...), I've decided to do some Mods to my car. I want to colour code the Bumpers, Strips, a new vent, and I want Lexus Lights, Chrome Hoops, and a Sports Grille. (not that I'm greedy...lol...)

So questions are:

1) Do Peugeot dealerships have different Vents available, or would I have to order from Ecosse?

2) I have an Aegean Blue cc. Do Lexus Lights look good on this colour cc?? Has anyone got a piccy??

3) Where can I order Chrome Hoops from, apart from Ecosse? Ecosse seem very expensive. I know Derek usually orders them, but he's already stated that he's hasn't got any available. Can I order them from anywhere else directly?

4) Wheres the best place to get a SP Grille? Should I get it through the dealership/Ecosse, or is there a cheaper way?

Also one last point.....I love the car, and the reaction from other people towards it!! Never had a convertible before, but simply love driving around topless now!

Happy cruising

1) You gotta go to ecosse if u want the crystal bonnet vents like the ones on mine. Alternatively you cud have ur exisiting vents colour coded as some have done

2) Personally i dont like lexus lights on blue CCs..... but this is only my opinion so

If u wanna go for summink different go for the LED afterburners.....more expensive but very very few around.

3) Derek is currently taking orders from chrome hoops i think unless he has filled up his order

apart from him only ecosse that i know of supplying them over here

4) The grille is best to get it done at your dealership cuz its a bit of a nightmare to take the front bumper off and fit it yaself.......much easier to pay the 19quid for fitting and not having the hassle

hope thats helped a little

2. Erm doesn't like them on any colour except silver

Personally, I reckon they look good on all the colours, and best on black

no i think they look good on silver, moonstone and black

and they are passable on green as long as u got chrome hoops

i fitted a set on a black on just the other day and they did make a big improvement

I think they look awful on baked bean - sorry Firedance...(sorry Lyndon)

But then, i'm just bitter and twisted driving around in a smacked up Rover 25!

Ecosse is the place to order those parts. I don't know about delivery time (cause i live in Finland).
Hey, Lexus lights looks fantastic on aegean blue CC

Take a look of my car : http://www.peugeot206cc.co.uk/owners/351-07.html
(owner no. 351).

Sorry about those winter tyres/wheels.

Thanks Jussi,

The Lexus lights look great! Ordered mine today from Ecosse along with the Cristal Vent! Just waiting to hear back from them on delivery time!

Also decided against the colour coding of the bumper and strips. Had a look at some of the meeting photos, and I feel that the Aegean Blue just doesn't suit colour coding(in my opinion!!! ......waiting for onslaught by those who have done it

).

But instead I'm going to get the Sport Wheel Arch extensions (cheers W.R.I. - you convinced me!

)

Dave M i agree with you

I feel also that colour coding doesn't fit with aegean blue. In my opinion the car looses it's lines with colour coding. But that's also my opinion, and hey aren't we all "styling" the cars to ourselves

IMHO I think Aegean blue does need colour coding, bu tI would say that as I had it done!!

I personally think colour coding on all colours is a must. Hasn't colour coding become standard on the facelifted model?

i agree with mattb. mvoong has an aegean blue CC which i have seen and it looks excellent colour coded.
