Just gonna be tidying up the ZS and doing all the little things ive been meaning to do for a while.

So today I went to B&Q and bought some small nuts, bolts and washers for my heatshields. Got the chrome set to match and tightened them on so they are now nice and secure, far better than the old self tappers i had.

Then I fitted mg MG TF Chrome Heater Rings to the interior. I like these, nice and subtle but just give it a nice finishing touch :)

try getting chrome surround for the gaitor too....also I saw on another forum some german ZS with chrome around the leccy window switches and the tweeters near the wing mirrors...surely they would be official part numbers for them?

All this extra weight can't be doing your power to weight ratio any good !!! ;)
