Default Chrome Bonnet fins from formymercedes.com

Does anyone have the the chrome bonnet fins from formymercedes.com? If so, after you have had them for a while, do they fade or get dull (from the sun, frequent washings etc.)

Thanks!

i have the Piecha aluminium ones. They are 100%, no fading/rusting or anything. easy to fit also.

@Vin, haha backwards, i had a dilemma fitting mine also as to which way they went.

I got mine from r171.co.uk (remember them - must be one of the few people who actually got what they ordered) about 2 1/2 years ago - they were originally from Germany and are still clean and sparkly! My problem was not which way round to put them, but counting up the holes in the grill to get them equally spaced!!

LOL, I like the display pic you should make a similar sticker and put it on your SLK so the people behind you get offended
