I guess the small grills in the photo



Are for the MG7 bumper. They have a different shape to those used on the MGR Premium bumper, but I guess they are OK?

Premium lower grill (from Post 77):

I understand the rear fittings are available/included?

The Roewe grill will only fit the Roewe bumper. It's been suggested that it might fit the MGR Premium bumper with come cutting away of the upper bumper section. That's yet to be tested. I'd suggest if you want the Roewe grill that you get it along with the Roewe bumper.

The MG7 grill has the same general shape as the MGR Premium bumper and therefore fits the Premium bumper directly. The MG7 grill comes without a badge, so an MG octagon will have to be sourced. Rover 75 owners are awaiting development of an octagonal Rover badge.

The Roewe and MG7/MGR Premium bumpers have two lower 'rectangular' grills. I'm unclear which version has been sourced by Radioguy. The ones shown in recent photos don't look like the MGR slots. (??) This needs more discussion think.

Just to clarify another photo.

This grill -


Is I believe the one that covers the LHS plenum/water sheild, so isn't really relevant to the bumper/grill project.

Well spotted TC, now that you've pointed it out, it looks to me as the small grills are for the Roewe 750 bumper.

Sean could you confirm that you have the small grills for the MG7 Limo Bumper - I'm sure you will have :-)

Sean, I'm pretty sure the top picture is not of a Roewe 750 bumper but an MG 7 - the most obvious difference is the different fog light apertures.
