Chrome Fin Covers

I have found a source for the same chrome fin covers that Park Place sells for $132 (new price). It is ForMyMercedes.com and he sells them for $99. I had ordered his set for the ML but they do not fit quite properly so he offered to order the ones that SteveThePilot showed in his install post. They are the Schatz-Tuning fins in glossy chrome.

If you want a set, send an email to Jerry at info@ForMyMercedes.com

I'm confused - they're different? I was under the (clearly mistaken) impression that the part on the ML is identical to the part on the GL (the hood vent cover, that is).

The ones he offered were $39 and were not the same as the set you got from Schatz-Tuning. I assume the ML and the GL do have the same grille and fins but the source of his $39 fins was not as well fitted as the ones you got from Schatz.

No I didn't ask him how long but he is a reliable source. I bought a CL grille for my 2003 W211 from him and some other stuff and he is very responsive. I imagine he has to order from Germany.
