Hi All,
Just wondering if anybody has brought a set of chrome fins for the bonnet, if so where from.

I have seen these on Ebay UK STOCK Set CHROME Bonnet Grill Fins Hood Vent Trims for Mercedes R172 SLK SLC | eBay
But in all honesty I try not to purchase from Ebay (Cheap rubbish) I would much rather spend a little bit extra and get quality.
Regards

I purchased genuine ones from MB for my R172. They came in a little kit with cleaner, sandpaper and glue. 100% perfect fit. Some (if not all) of the non MB units are stuck on with double sided tape and don't fit as well as the MB stuff. No masking tape etc needed and the covers are marked for correct positioning.

I was very happy with the look and the chrome was still perfect after 3 years asa daily driver.

They do look great on the car but have a downside in that they really catch the sunshine and reflect lots of light, took mine off in the end. Got them on eBay.

I never had that problem and the fins on my SL are about 3 x bigger and I don't have a problem with reflections from them either.
