  Maybe a 172 Cup..
Never noticed lights when I posted, but yeah change them as well. Be proud of your phase 1, not try and be a phase 2...

PH1 bumper is better. PH2 parts soften the aggressive look of the car. The only PH2 parts on my car is rear lights. Which is one thing I think really does stop the car looknig dated without softening it.
 
Er why the hell would you wanna change it back to the BUBBLE look!!

the way you have it now looks wicked!!

your car is meant to look edgey not rounded off, and boring !!

If simon cowell looked at your motor with the old bumper back on he would say something like!!

"Looking at your car is an experience i will forget"
"it was like looking at a toilet roll sprayed silver and stick on with blu-tac on the back of you vehicle"

and many many other obsurd replys

top pic looks so much better in my opinion and simon cowells

I'm about to go the other way.... Cup spoiler and ph2 side strips and it looks great IMO.

Although I think the ph2 bumper works better on cars that are very low.

To my mind, Ph1's look more purposeful with Ph2 detailing (Side strips/ r. bumper/ r. lights).

It's all subjective though.

Its meant to look like a ph1 because thats what it is ;)

Its hard to tell a Sport ph2 from a 1.2 Dynamic. :eek:

At least with a ph1 love it or hate it its easy recognisable as a Sport Clio especially at the front end

I think i'm going to change mine to a Ph2 bum. It's your choice though mate, if you're not keen it doesn't take long to swap the lights and bumper. Well that's if you still have the original parts.

  Whichever has fuel
Ph2 bumper on a ph1 looks stupid. Looks like two cars welded together. You've got the rounded front end of a ph1 and the square angular arse end of a ph2.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to deface your car.... lol! :rasp:

It'll look good with a cup spoiler with the ph2 side strips etc and you know it!

P.s, how often do you look at the back and the front of a car at the same time?
 
  1.4 phase 1
put the pahse 1 bumber back on. the only ph2 parts i would put on would be the side strips.
 
  Clio 182 cup'd
Buy a ph2 if you want it to look like one!

Ph1 looks fine, I actually prefer the ph1 lights aswell!

I think the ph1 looks better with the ph 2 bits on the back personally but wouldn't go to the hassle of changing them if they didn't already have it on.
