Thanks

Front end looks a lot cleaner, but no fog lamps.

The headlamps look very modern. I would think that they put out a lot of light.
In spite of being a LHD ZT owner I wouldnt do the swap as it would cost me a fortune to get a replacement bumper and lights shipped here, even a standard
facelift bumper. if it happened to fit those lights

Having looked carefully at the Roewe lamps and bumper, I'd say they're not the same profile as the Mk1 75/ZT lamps. I suspect they'd not fit in the bumper correctly. The reason I suggest this is because the fitting of standard Mk2 headlamps into the Roewe 'premium' style bumper leaves 10mm gaps. In fact when this conversion was popular on the forum, the bumper supplier recommended surrounding the lamps with draft excluder. I'm sure other members with long memories can add more.

EDIT: At one time, these lamps were available in RHD format from somewhere like Alibaba.

EDIT2: This old thread was definitive for the Roewe bumper mod. The images have the Photobucket ransom, but a read through the posts is informative.

I've also heard a couple times that the roewe 750 mkii style headlights are slightly deeper than our mkii headlamps so they don't quite fit.

Also they only made the Roewe 750 in LHD (as far as I'm aware as never seen a RHD one) so those headlamps will be LHD ones.

Indeed, 'genuine Roewe' that is. But Alibaba or a similar outlet were advertising RHD 'versions/copies' 'cos I was seriously thinking about getting some to go with the Roewe bumper. They were rather expensive.

Actually I see all the pictures as they should bee without PB ransom. I can download them, but I have no possibility to upload them here. No use of hosting them anywhere else as some other form of ransom or host taken down will emerge. So if anyone wants I can help with the pictures. I can also copy-paste complete OP post to forum where I can upload pictures on that site (however I am not sure everybody likes .org, but ...)

Best to contact Devilish who owns the photos and see if he can reorganise the hosting or maybe coordinate with you.
