Default Louvers, any recommendations?

So I recently got the urge to purchase some louvers for my Mustang....anybody have any recommendations? Price is the main factor, cheaper the better. The cheapest I have seen is for about $103 on ebay. Oh also I dont mind if they are not painted.

Just a thought... maybe look around at what others will post and maybe save up some more? I am not sure if you like the style, but the Silverhorse Racing Louvers are my favorite... (I got them for Christmas from my husband...) I also love Cervini. Let us know what ya choose!

Are you talking louvers for the side windows or rear window?

I have the Roush pre-painted (Torch Red) louvers and am very happy with the look.. but I paid $250 for them so it might be more than you wana pay..

I'm sure those would look just fine.

I went ROUSH on the side and MRT Aluminum on the rear... they're in my profile if you want an idea on the combo. Don't go for the cheap plastics on the side and watch out on installation and you should be good to go! Good luck!!

"gtretroredfire" on here has an awesome set:

Louver pictures

Looks like they're $334.00 here for the factory matched colors:

SilverHorse Racing Webstore - Flush-Mount Quarter Vent Louver (pair)

Most of the other ones go on top of the glass, and these are a direct replacement for the OEM glass. It's definitely not the cheapest, but to me, it would be worth the extra money. I don't have the money for them right now (saving up for some underdrive pullies!) but if I were to buy louvers, this would be the set.

If anyone wants to see what the Roush prepainted 1/4 louvers look like take a look at the pics in my album.. I went with Roush because I like that I can remove 3 set screws and take the louver off to clean the windows or whatever..
