I think there is a forum member here who has just the kind of bumper you're talking about, his avatar picture is of that bumper on his C4. I'm pretty sure he did the mod himself. I can't remember his forum name though. Maybe someone else here remembers who it was.

Personally, I like the square taillights just fine. The look of the rounded rear bumper with round lights just doesn't look right to me. That's just my personal preference though.

I actually was talking about this very same thing the other day wishing that someone would make one. I like my round tail lights but want a more rounded bumper as you do. I was thinking about going with the c5 bumper upgrade kit for the early c4s.

That bumper will not work for him because he has the black belt line mouldings used on a 87 I don't like the look of trying to match the 2 different styles.
