NAT for MPLS VPN

I have a Cisco network, currently with tag-switching running but with no
VPN's. I have a 7140 which is been used as the gateway for the network which
has a link to a 7200 handling my internet connections. Currently the 7140
has a default route pointing to the internet router, this route is
redistributed by BGP for the rest of my network.
 
When I add VPN's with VRF's I face a problem. I need the current default
gateway to stay as is for the rest of the network, but I also need some kind
of default gateway for the specific VRF and then I need to be able to get
those packets out of the VPN and to the internet. I was planning on using
the 7140 with some kind of NAT config with subinterfaces on the gateway
within the VRF as the inside interface and then the interface connecting to
the internet router as the outside interface. I don't know how to get the
packets out of the VRF and on to the internet router.
 
Has anyone got any ideas?
