Hi all,


When the Rover 75 badges were made to fit the MG7 surround, did a MG version get made and has anyone tried to make the new MG6 type badge fit?

Regards

Nigel

PS Andy at Roverbreakers is too busy at the moment to look for the pax side fog surround for us. He knows we want them but hes still unsure he even has them. Keep ringing him if you want them !! if he feels its worthwhile he may find some time to get to them. (The boxes they may be in are behind racking with lots of doors at the moment).
Fingers crossed lol

Are these the mk2 fog light mount you are talking about? If they are, then Andy emailed me yesterday saying he has them at £25+vat

I organised the badge run and only 75 badges were made after which interest tailed off, there is a ready made alternative with the larger MG ZR or ZS badge, Woolleysox has one and intends to use it on his premium bumper mod, we tried it against my premium bumper at last weeks nano meet and it looked good, I will be seeing rob at the weekend and will get a picture for you, the badge sits just outside the recess but it gives it more of a profile and looks good IMO

I could get a run of MG badges made but tooling costs of around.£300 have to ba paid up front so you need a few members to share the cost which is what we did with the 75 badge run

I believe Steve has an MG 6 badge and it is just slightly too big too fit in the recess so it can either be fit outside the recess or filed down sligthtly as it is only a fraction too big, again I will get some pictures for you on Saturday and post on here

No link,
But the first Audi to go in production with the singleframe grille was the A6 saloon in April 2004.

A 54 plate can be registered in the first few months of 2005, but the 04 is of course earlier

Is Andy charging 25 quid plus VAT each for the foglight brackets or 25 quid for a pair, as I need two pairs?
