I think he means this is the chinese premium bumper, which leaves enormous gaps around the headlights, big enough to fit your fingers in!

I mean the side "flaps" which come together with the side wings.

IMO the gaps near the headlights are not that big by the way, but indeed the Original MK2 bumper do have a better fit around the headlights.

Question does the indicators with the fog lamps fit the normal premium bumper like mine? or can they be made to fit?

Thanks

Reading through the forum on the premium bumper, it says that the wheel arch liners have to be changed..... is this the case....... Also, does the connectors have to changed as stated......

If anyone lives near Rugby that would like to give me hand, then I would accept lol

As I recall, the MGR Premium bumper requires different arch liners to fill the larger gap at the front. Not considered essential as I recall. I also recall that the MGZT liners are the same part number as the Premium liners (i.e. the 75 and ZT use different arch liners at the front). However, you're talking about the Roewe bumper I assume, which has the same fitting as standard.

The indicator/fogs have their own (Roewe?) style sockets, so you have to modify the existing connector. There have been a couple of ideas reported , the latest using those Chinese yellow and black two pin plugs from eBay. Whatever, the existing plug won't go in the new sockets.
