Someone will know....
Where can I purchase (in the UK) brake dust shields/guards in the UK, so my newly refurbished period alloys don't get crudded up with brake dust. I need mail order or internet places to get these from. I rrealise there may be an issue about reduced brake cooling, but I'm not a high performance driver, so I won't have any issues about that.
Its a 77 w123 280E
Thanks... Rob.
If you were in the USof A (and they'd fit) I'd gladly give you the ones purchased for my '94 SL.
Mercedes abhors these, as even with the "vents" pointed in the correct direction, they allegedly can allow the brake temps to get much warmer than they'd prefer. More importantly (for me at least), they really look like crap! They have a tendency to make nice alloy wheels look like hub-caps (yuckkk!) I kept 'em on the car for about a month, before yanking them off... and they've been in the basement ever since (I'd rather put up with the brake dust, than use these or install "harder" pads... YMMV!)
