I think SquiggleDog has them on his epic 300SD, although I can't remember for sure if his are knockoffs? Either way, they are way cool. Kinda gives the car a "tougher" look.

I think these are 'rare' in that I have never seen them before. Maybe more rare than the AMG body kit items ? In any event, I should know by the end of June what they look like in person.

At first these reminded me of the rally W123's. Then again it seems these may be different, the shape does not match what is shown here.




These remind me of the W107 rally cars instead:
