There may be occasions where you would like to override the way a Joomla! Components MVC to add a little new functionality or complete customize a component. Component MVC can be overridden by using a class with same name as we have on a component and we need to loading by using a system plugin before component are dispatched by application.
What you can override on MVC component? - View classes: [Component]View[Name] - Model classes: [Component]Model[Name] - Controller classes: [Component]Controller[Name]

Getting a head-start with overrides
Override Base Component Controller
TEMPLATE_NAME/code/EXTENSION_NAME/CONTROLLER.php
Override Another Component Controller
TEMPLATE_NAME/code/EXTENSION_NAME/controllers/CONTROLLER_NAME.php
Override Models TEMPLATE_NAME/code/EXTENSION_NAME/models/CONTROLLER_NAME.php
If you use multiple templating on your site you can override by create a "local" folder on root folder and on administrator folder.
