I've heard on the grapevine that Prince Charles is going to offer such a service at Highgrove. He'll do it while you wait and Camilla will provide a cuppa.


You could on the other hand try the factory or VSM at Colwall...near the factory.

I heard that he failed his apprenticeship.

Could we be seeing the birth of a new Morgan accesories business to challenge Simmons of Malvern - Windsors of Highgrove innocent

MMC will do it and give you a quote.

I agree with you. I think that painted wires on a 4/4 look right.
However on the +4s and Roadsters, I would go for stainless

I do have a spare set of bonnet halves left over from my "supersport" makeover earlier this year, 29 top and 8 inward side louvres. If anyone is interested I might be persuaded to sell them!
