Smile V8 Grille for Rover 75 Turbo

Hi Ive noticed some Last Batch Rover 75's actually have Factory fitted V8 fronts, i did not think they were extra options, but they look great & i want to fit one on my recent purchase. Please where can i GET a V8 front in Starlight Silver (ideally) ? although can get them sprayed up..................i presume all the existing front lights etc just "retro-fit" into the new panel?
I have just purchased one of the Last R75 Contemporary SE 1.8 Turbos with only 8,000 miles on a 56 plate............I would welcome any members help on this venture, especially while the car is so "New".
Many thanks & Seasons Greeting from Toni

what he means is that you can't just get a V8 front with all the fittings 'cos they aren't available. The bumpers can be found but the chrome fittings, grilles etc. not.
