Thank you

Hadrian used to do good ones but went bust/were taken over by Imperial https://www.crashrepairparts.com/session/login who may source from other Mercedes afterpanel manufacturers such as the Danish Klokkerholm Klokkerholm
Its a bit of a lottery with many pattern parts requiring lots of fettling to get a good fit. Your likelyhood of getting decent second hand front wings are slim and any good ones out there are likely to already be replacements and hence a bit younger.

CCAALL i am also looking for 2 front wings. But must be original MB its like looking for gold. And like you want a good aftermarket wing .I have 2 aftermarket wings in my garage, not what i want on my car . So i will keep looking on the bay .Look in the forsale section on the forum as i do .Good luck.

I spoke to some breakers when I was looking to replace a wing. They said forget looking for good 2nd hand ones, a waste of time - they don't exist.

The advice is buy new, be it pattern or genuine depending on the approach you are taking.

Thank you for your advice, I think I shall buy pattern, but am going to enquire about genuine from a French dealer due to the favourable exchange rate and collect when in holiday, worth a try
