This is the name of a seller that sells dimma style kits for the 205. Just search by seller and enter his name, he doesn't seem to have any at the moment but it might be worth sending him a message asking if he has any coming in.

I just (yesterday) bought the one that he had on, there'll be another on to replace it soon enough.

 

Keep your eyes peeled for an update to my project thread along the lines of, yet another change of plan, now matt black + dimma kit, with nice idea for the track widening that I'm not going into detail on just yet!

Probably best off buying a whole car, cheap copies tend to be rather poor to put it nicely..

 

Dimma UK distributors - http://www.st-performance.co.uk/dimma.htm

 

Dimma themselves - http://www.dimmadesign.com/en/presentation.html

 

thanks for that man

nah il stick with fitting the kit myself. im a mechanic, 1 a my brothers is a fabricator and ones a panel beater so surely between the 3 of us it will go on allright ha

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you'll also need the spoiler and the little fins that sit at the top of the quarter panels to merge in the spoiler to the car. Without these it wouldn't look quite right to me, maybe your preference is different.

 

On a side note, I had a dimma (genuine factory one), but it gave me such a headache! Under the kit, the cills, quarter panel and numerous other parts had rusted and rotted away by water finding its way behind the kit. I think buying a new kit and making sure its fitted and sealed properly is the only way I would have another Dimma.

 

Keep up posted with the progress! Will you be doing the work or are you handing it over to a bodyshop?

 

Deano!
