Yes they had. And they were useless, as most such things are. Chances of somebody elses door hitting you in the rubber part instead of the naked door skin are minute.
The only thing those rubber patches were good for was protecting your door when you yourself swung it open into an obstacle. My E46 had plenty of door dings (really crowded and thight parking spaces in Europe) despite the protectors.
