My pug had a busy week last week!! Went up to TopGearNW and had a cutom made backbox with twin tailpipe made up for my car!! Cost £150 with discount, and I was more than happy to pay that, as it adds much more style to the rear of the car, and also sounds very nice!!
I then went to the bodyshop next door to enquire about colour coding my door handles, quads and spoiler (when i buy one) He happened to have a GTi spoiler that he'd taken off his car and said he only wanted £20 for it, so I said hed need it fitting and spraying, so he said £60 all in, which I thought was an absolute bargain as Ive seen the spoilers go for £50+ on ebay!!
Went up and had that fitted yesterday and was well chuffed!!
Due to the work done on the car, it was an absolute state, so I decided to give it the meguiars treatment:
(All meguiars Stuff)
Gold Class Shampoo Wash and Dried off with Megs Drying Magnet
ClayBar Detailer all over
Deep Crystal Polish
Nxt Tech Wax Paste
Hot Rims Tyres Shine after Polishing up the wheels!!
Heres the pics:
Just thought id add, this is how my car looked 3 months ago when I bought it, big change, eh!??
Comments Welcome!!

Still trying to decide what colour to go with the wheels, but think im swaying towards anthra, due to the fact the windowswill be getting tinted and am getting some black LED rear lights, so white might stand out too much!! Havent decided yet tho!!
Interior isnt standard, lol, its the interior out of the 206 gti 180!! full alcantara and apicula mesh and backed in leather, and is absolutely gorgeous!! Bucket seats up front, converts 3 seats to 2 seats in the rear, and comes with a leather speedo pod, aluminium door handles and alcantara glove box with alloy handle!! heres some more pics:

yeah, iv though about upgrading dash at its gets on my nerves!!
they are really cheap to pick up, but are meant to be an absolute ball-ache to fit!! all airbags and sensors have to be unplugged, etc!! will probs give it a go one day

Agree with the black dash idea. Would look so much better.

interior cost me £1300 with the wheels, so about £800-£900, but i got all the little bits with it!! they are usually worth about £1000 2nd hand with all the bits (speedo pod, door handles, air vents, etc) but ya can pick up just seats and door cards for about £700 on ebay, just keep ya eye out mate!!
mite struggle fitting in a 106, as they are really tall, and might hit the roof, i dunno tho!! good luck mate, they would look sweet in a 106!!

One nicest cars on here! Wheels definatley need to be white! How about getting the dash flocked instead of changing for a black one?
Did he not do the door handles by the way?

yeah, still £700 for that interior is way outah my budget. I think i would probably better off with some aftermarket buckets instead.
Still would look mint with that interior in a 106.
