i dont think itll fit on mate, it slightly wider.

Ask Pretender. He kitted his 1.2 out in 172 bodykit.

I have a 5 door 1.4 clio MK2, i have changed the rear bumper to 172 one without modding anything else

But for the front Bumper, the 172 one cannot be fitted unless you chnage the sides also.

It will go straight on with no alterations.

You got any pics mate?

Have you got a standard zorst? If not did the bumper get in the way of the exit?

Looking at doing this my self.

Cheers.

If you want to do the job probaly then yes you do need to change the rear arch liners too. I meant that you dont have to make any alterations to the bumper or fixings

oh right off to the scrappies again for some liners then!!

My 1.4 Clio didnt change any arch liners the 172 rear bumber just fit on mine perfectly

but one problem u will face is that the old plastic plates behind the wheels inside the bumber will be a little but smaller and u cannot fit two screws, actually it doesnt affect much, the picture is below

Those plastic plates behind the bumper are called arch liners. If you want to do the job probaly you have to change those aswell, then all the screws will fit.
