306 XSI-6 (White)

[Gunge]

Well for a while now i've wanted to change the dated look of the xsi-6 but i've been putting it off till the Rallye is finished, but as i may be rebuilding the rallye's engine or buying an already high boosted lump the rallye will be staying off the road till the new year, cos of this i'm now getting on with the new look

Started with some black masks that have been sat in the shed over a year







Standard rear Bumper smoothed





Primmed it all up yesterday, fingers croosed we get some sun this weekend so i can paint

Started with giving the wheels and mirror caps a coat of paint












Then i got on to painting the bumpers and spoiler





Just got the boot to weld/smooth and paint

Fitted new valves in the wheels and inflatted tyres, refitted the grill and drivers rallye blank t bumper



fitted the mirrors








Tonight i started on the boot/bumper stripping ready to weld weld boot and hopefully get painted this weekend



Puled the false floor and sub box out to get to the bumper bolts

Something about it, that's weird. I think it's the number plate on the front. Get a standard one apart from that it's an amazing car

Ah looks amazing glad my old front bumper went to a good place.

Love the white on blue.

Nice job.

The cars past

how it looked when i bought it





that was october 2003

by fcs 2004 i changed the look to this




some reason i resized those for avi's and lost the orriginals

july 2004 i blew the engine so that was when all the engine work started but it also meant i missed trax

this was the car during 2005 at fcs and trax







things stayed nearlt the same for 2006

here it is in the rollers producing 189bhp




early in 2007 i changed a few things again and this is how it looked












then an atempt to steel my alloys saw the n/s front whhel come off on the by pass so that prompted the real re build


















then it was ready for paint i trailered it up to a mate place this is it the ady after (10 days before fcs 07)


















for the next week i worked on the car after work (5.30) till around 12/1 everynight and was very tiring but the end result makes it worth wile i think




















then at fcs 2007 which was the aim date for completion




then all cleaned up ready for pfc and fast car mag features





then my fav of all

[Dum-Dum]

Looked beautiful in that fast car mate, remember actually buying that edition

[Gunge]

Yeah that was when it was at its best since then it has been let to go down hill for a few reasons

[karl1989]

like the ph3 bumpers. thats what im going for next year the smoothed bumpers

[hbomb1905]

Mad that you've had it so long! Must say its looking the best now - those modern lines look amazing!

I remember seeing it at FCS 07, parked near the 106s and Clios not the 306s! haha

Tempted to get another single wiper kit now! haha

[Gunge]

Bought a new camera midweek so had a play and took a few pics

[Nadine]

This is gorgeous, love seeing it change through the years. I hope my 6 looks as awesome as this

[Jukie88]

I want those wheels in my life !!!!

[C.A.R.]

It's looking good mate, still think it would benefit black B-pillars though!

Iv got pic of this at fcs 09 on the top 25 stand. I must admit i did take it for lolz at the time due to the missive kit and wheels. This was before i was on the forums mind . Must say i am loving it these days minus the mirror caps.

[Gunge]

This is now for sale £1600 if it hasnt sold before July i will strip it

[puglove]

you should try returing it to more of an OE spec, I.E interior, wheels ,number plate, mirrors, better chance of selling IMO

[Jukie88]

How much for wheels and bumpers ??

[Gunge]

This has now sold, it's new owner has just registered

[Matt]

Gutted when I saw this sell. I always wanted to be the buyer
