Looking for the bracket on the drivers side rear bumper! It stabalises the bumper and attaches from the bumper and the body-work.

I think it's one of those stupidly expensive parts, like £70+ if I remember correctly!:blink:

This is rediculus!! I've been to 5 different breakers and only found 3 ZS's, 2 of those being Hatch's which don't seem to have the part i require and the other being the mk1 version! Is no-body breaking these things?? And if MG have such a bad name for breaking down etc, why don't you ever see them in the scrappys?? They're like trying to find rocking horse sh*t!!!! Not happy here!!! :sad: :sad: :sad:

Just be thankful your ZS is working properly, even if it goes have a bit of a saggy bum! :)

Actually, those 2 hatches you found... Were they mk2's with fog lights by chance? :)

180 stuff will indeed fit onto a 120, but you'll need to do the whole load (calipers, carriers, discs and pads).. Might as well replace the hoses while you're at it too!

Have the whole load sitting in the garage at the mo, just need to get around to fitting it!:happy2:

Who buffed & waxed your car? Was it a DIY job?

Got mine done a few weeks back, but it wasn't a very good job and now I have a nasty hologram all over the paintwork... Need to get it done again now! :(

Any good with getting rid of paint chips? I've got like a million of them on my bonnet and bumper!

Did the mk1's have them or is it a mk2 thing only?

mk2 only I believe... I think they were introduced as the bottom of the bumper is 3" longer, and to support the 180 kit :)
