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.

Gary told me, once again, that he doesn't carry them anymore
so back to the beginning, Does anyone one any other vendors that carry them?

Thanks Guys
