Lower front mesh grill for Mk2 Zt **ACQUIRED**

coolcat · 15th August 2013, 08:05

Due to an accident (argument with a tow bar) I need to replace the lower front mesh grill on my Mk2 Mg Zt-t.

This is going through an insurance claim and nobody seems to have the part new so I will be looking for a good condition second hand one

I need to deal with this quickly as the car is to be booked in at the bodyshop for front bumper respray in the next few days

Thanks in advance

I thought that as well.....But it is being done at an official repair centre and they only deal in oem parts

If I can supply the part that will speed the process up.
Don't think they will be into fabricating new parts and bonding them in place unfortunately!
Although if no part is forthcoming that will be the suggestion I put forward

Ah I see, I assumed that the mesh was part of the bumper so in order to get a new mesh it was a new bumper scenario. Hope you find what your looking for sir.

Cheers John,

Apparently it is a replaceable part so fingers crossed

The lower mesh on a mk2 can be changed it's not bonded on like the others, if my memory serves me right it's fastened on by 7 screws.
It's nothing fancy just screwed on through the holes in the mesh.

That's what the body shop told me as well
