I've seen the satnav/tv from the MG 7 is available on the internet but does anyone know if you can buy the MG7 LWB front/bumper/grill? (it's the rover 75 prestige front end with an mg badge)
Always liked the idea of getting the prestige front and fitting chrome mesh and an MG badge, but would be great to get it virtually already done from China.
Obviously would have a major cost implication!

Its a real bitch trying to get stuff out of China at the mo but never say never.
is that similar to what AndyG had on the front of his ZTT400?Quote:

Spot on, thats exactly what I'd pictured, new to this forum so didn't know it had already been done. Think it looks great, gives it a real presents. Love the older style mg badge on the mg7Quote:

if you can get the parts from China that is.

They are being ever so careful about parts coming back to Britain. Don't understand why as at the end of the day its business.
business is business, but its a totally different culture we are dealing with with different ways of doing things. It can be hard enough with different countries within Europe, but China I guess is a totally different game.Quote:

:cool:
I've worked extensively with the Chinese - my guess is they dont want to do it as the return is small and controlling it is expensive
