What is the criteria for reproducing parts? For a few years the oddments box was out of production and NLA. Then sometime last year you could get it again.

It really depends on the demand for the product.

Being that our cars and the rare AMG parts are getting dated and next to NLA, they make them upon how many orders they receive. So that means - they either have the part sitting on their shelfs or you'll have to wait until they have enough orders and that wait can be a month up to from what I heard to a year on some goods. I'm still waiting on my extra set of Fender spacers.

Also Eliot, you should of contacted me before you bought the limiters. save you a few bucks.

It was spur of the moment...

I do have a few things (such as a fender) I should get around to ordering.

1245243130 - Paneling

1248804818 - Right Fender

1248110161 - Mirror Cap

1248110461 - Miror Cap

Also replacing some of the dented chrome filler that fits into the cladding. I still need to double which ones I'm pulling though.

they make them upon how many orders they receive.
Not the best place to be... waiting on other people to put a few orders in. Thanks for the answer With the spacers... you could get a shop to duplicate them. Why the second set though?

Order another set just to have it.

I'll get you pricing on those parts in a few via GMail.

That would be lovely Chris. I bumped into a large object last summer and punctured the fender. I assume I'm going to replace it especially with the other paint work.

Order another set just to have it.
Hoarding eh?

Depends. Possibly yes. I'd try them in conjunction with the fender spacers.

AMG spring travel limiters won't help that much from rubbing.

Fender Spacers would be a better choice - then again those are hard to order as well.
