Which lights?

[SammyGirl]

Hiya all, I've just got a clio sport which Im going to make some mods to, nothing OTT just want to change the lights, better alloys, just make it look tidier really. I cant pick what type of lights to go for, give me some ideas guys before I make the poor thing look like a muppet!

If you were going to change lights, which would you go for?? I want something sleak!

Thanks in advance!

hello and welcome to the forum

in my opinion.. STANDARD!

the only way for a 172/182.

all the aftermarket lights look cheap and tacky
personally id spend the money on some silvervision bulbs all round. and get the 172 wheels powder coated in anthracite like the 182 cup wheels

welcome cliosport. silvervisions only for the lights as they are nice enough. posibly some turinis if you want to change the alloys. get a pic up.

 

[SammyGirl]

But I dont like them! Im a fussy little moo and I only like clear or smoked/black lights!

How do I change the thingy which says what car ive got? In profile Im guessing?

 

[Guy]

yeah, in profile.

 

[Middo]

have them tinted then.

Has any 1 got the standard Renault White light kit for the rear?
£99 incl vat from my dealer-was tempted but dont want the boy racer look-Whats every 1 think?

 

[Middo]

look terrible. its part of the sports pack, but look like cheap clear jobbies off ebay if im thinking about the right ones.

What colour car is it as that will affect your choice of lights?

 

[interceptor]

Didn't get a pic-All I can remember is the Red reflector strip across the bottom which kinde defies the object in them!

Mines silver.
So thought would blend in more.

The car is better left as standard as they people know its a real 172. If you start putting mods on it, it looks cheap...

 

[SammyGirl]

I gotta change the thingy under my name cuz thats not the car ive got, i dont remember selecting anything, will change it later.

My cars black, i just personally think black cars look better with clear lights, just personal taste, we arent talking extream body kits hehe

 

[Guy]

so you dont have a clio 172/182??

feel free to put some lights on then. lol

just leave the renaultsport models alone

[Middo]

lol

i thought that too. cliosport philosophy in a can

 

[kpowell911]

lets make our cars look identical

 

[Middo]

thats the spirit

 

[ChrisO182]

I`m not one for after market lights, especially the clio as the lights as standard match the car really well but having seen these on black clio i think they look quite well and not cheap or nasty, it`s a personal taste thing though.

K-tecs colour coded are the best!

I think they look nice on them, so what if others have got them.

What car do you actually own?..

 

[Saner]

If you really can't stand the standard lights:

Tint them black or
