I got mine from Gary@Suvneer who is a member here. Just send him a PM. $50 shipped with the chrome insert pieces. They are not painted so you will have to get them painted to match your car, but look great once installed. I just used a cable tie to hold the light to the frame of the car. The place I had mine painted charged $150 to paint the Euro impact strips as well as a grill I installed.

I don't think Gary carries the impact strips anymore. I saw him post the other day.

Interesting. I got mine about 2 weeks ago from him. It might not hurt to at least send him a PM. Maybe he knows another vendor. When I was looking I did find another vendor in Europe that sends them painted, which is nice, but they wanted something like $390 Euros for them.

The other place I found them at was: www.MBenzNL.com

They wanted $300 Euros painted and shipped. That is $435 dollars, not cheap.

I pmed Gary a while ago and he said he was sold out and i did ask him if he knows any other vendor but never got a reply....
As for the other website, 435 dollars for the impact strips seems not reasonable for me, but thanks for the options and reply's
Does any one know any other places i can buy them from?

i know this isnt the reply u want to hear BUT im sure Gary must have restocked by now i bought my impact strips a week ago from him, i ran into a problem with parts shipped from him but i got on the phone and Garry took care of the situation so fast i literally had my problem solved that day but then again i live 30 min from his shop. i would definitely do business with him again. I am in no way affiliated with Garry or his business, just a happy customer.

Gary is awesome, I got my cf lip, trunk spoiler, roof spoiler, and impact strips from him. I'd as him if he got a shipment in. I know he's always getting orders in for parts and it sometimes takes him a while to get a shipment in. if he doesnt you can always just do some body work yourself and bondo over your side markers, sand it down and paint it.
