Default Important announcement - mg rover custom car parts is closing down on 31st august 202

Hi all,

as an early notice, I am closing up shop on 31st August 2023, after 6 and a half years since I opened MG Rover Custom Car Parts. Due to other commitments, lines of work and business, I will no longer have the time to keep MG Rover Custom Car Parts in operation from the end of August, and after such a long time period I feel it's time for a change. I also need to free up some workspace back.

Between now and the closing date I am still taking orders for custom headlights, custom fog lights, custom dials and dash LED colour conversion.
I will also be arranging one last batch run of the custom LED illuminated gear knobs, custom LED kick trims and the LED tail light and sidelight bulbs kits, keep an eye out for my posts over the next following days for each of these.
NEW IPK SCREENS for 75's and ZTs.

I have finally been able to arrange one final batch run of new replacement IPK screens. I will be posting soon when the batch is open for orders.
Those who have already reserved IPK screens with me from the previous batches from 2022 and before, all screens will need to be fitted by the end of August, or alternatively posted to you to arrange your own fitting.

Just to clarify, I am still operating until 31st August 2023.

Many thanks
Rick

I’m sorry to hear this Rick, you’ve given A1 service for the last 6 years and will be missed. I hope you are retaining your ZT though and will still frequent the forums as a regular member?

Best of luck for your future endeavours

Hello Rick,

Just to echo what others have said about the excellent prompt service by return. Hope you keep looking in wherever life takes you to in future and good luck with the new endeavours.

I'm sure you will be welcomed if you choose to offer more goodies even on a part time/hobby basis!

Best wishes

Kevin

Thanks to your top class service Rick I'm pleased to say that I'm delighted with the new IPK you've fitted.
You'll be sadly missed.
