Cisco Nexus Multiple VRFs to share same MPLS uplink

We're looking to run multiple VRFs at one location on our Nexus to keep logical separation between two separate server farms.

Each server farm has a dedicated Firewall + internet connection but share the same Core Nexus switch. The idea being that we can maintain separate routing instances for each Farm.

The catch is we need both VRFs to access the same uplink to our MPLS.

MPLS comes in on a single Fiber plugged into the Nexus Directly.

Since the MPLS comes into a single VLAN, I can't make that VLAN a part of both VRFs?

I can make separate virtual IPs and OSPF instances for the 2 VRFs easily enough, but I need an elegant way to split the MPLS feed between both VRFs.
