So I have been making the side louvers from abs plastic for a few years now. Every time someone asked me about sides they wanted to know about the rear. I always had to say have to get lucky and try to find one..

Well I took it upon my self to built a New aluminum 7 slat rear louvers. All hand made along with the mounted hardware. This is my prototype one but will be making limiter quantities of these as they take a good amount of time to build. This is my design and did not copy any other companies.. It has my measurements, my mounting hardware along with my edge design. 

One pictured still needs 3/4 side trim lok but I am waiting on samples to arrive before choosing which fits the best. These are made from .080 aluminum. Oe ones were around .060 so these are much sturdier. 

Price is going to be around 600 a set. I am trying to work with local powder coater to see what a set would cost to get done

I have made a handful of these sets. I had them sent out an powder coated. I have come to the conclusion I will no longer be making these. From the amount of time it takes, to material cost and the issue of shipping them.

Wow very nice work on the side window louvers... Wondering if these are still available would look really sharp on my car. I already have the rear and have been searching for side windows... If you could email me @ marcupper@gmail.com would be amazing. Cheers
