Folks:

As I care about quality parts for our cars AND I do care when a poor one
arises, I contacted Kelvin and I have agreed to assist him by posting his
replies to this List.  He is an EXTREMELY overworked and busy Gent that REALLY
cares about LBC's (mostly MGs & we should not hold it against him<G>) and
parts for them.  He just pkain does not have the time to even do digest
"Lists".  His reply follows along with Charlie's post.

Regards....

Ed

Thanks for the heads up. This bumper is not very high quality. We have looked
at alternatives, but so far the only other new one on the market fits even
worse.



It's marked as a 991 prefix number which means we are not proud of it.

I have purchased new bumpers for my BT7 from Moss and the rear bumper
hole centerlines measure 6 3/8" on each side compared my original at
7".  Even though the bracket holes are slotted, there is no way they can
accommodate 5/8".  Is Moss quality this bad or did they send the wrong
bumper?
I haven't checked the front one yet.  I'm half afraid of what I might find.
TIA
Charlie
