Anyone know where I can get one of these shutters for a reasonable price, its only a strip of rubber after all.
I think it is the part 116 in this diagram?;

At a shop in Denmark, it is listed as 108 Danish Kroner, which is below
US$20, so $70 is too much;

At the S129 club in Germany, http://www.classic-roadster.de/ , it is listed
at €10, ca. US$13.

I do not know any other source in US where you can buy by
the Mercedes part number, but now at least you have that.
