well your not really gona get much performance from a 1.2!
If its a 16v,I would say induction kit and exhaust.Least then it'll sound nice!

tbh mate keep it nice and clean and tidy and save your money they look nice standard and in good nik
obviously if your hell bent on moddin then perhaps an exhaust system, colour code the exterior and a set of side skirts would be a start mate.
good luck chap

Go for the badgeless grill, although everyone seems to do the same (including me! :lol so may be keep standard.

Smoke side repeaters though and if you don't colour code the plastics, keep them tip top with "back2black" or a heat gun!

tbh 2 bhp if your luck unless your gonna go mad on modifying an engine an exhaust is usually bought for a pleasing drone on your ears. try get something stainless at least then itll last ya and they tend to sound nicer 4 some reason.
