Cool as in house air conditioning register vents look.

So wait, this is a home depot mod?

cooltoy 01-29-2016 01:32 PM

Your favorite kind of mod (after Photoshop of course).

Plus the only thing you generally might be able to see out your rear window is getting small real fast so what difference does it make?

I don't like the fit and finish

cooltoy 02-05-2016 01:46 PM

Even though I like the look, I must agree.

TerribleONE 02-05-2016 02:37 PM

Yea the fitment doesn't look good at all

LinPark 02-05-2016 05:08 PM

Bring one of those over to my house immediately and install! :yum:

Signed for the pre-order I wonder when release will be

And the 80s are making a comeback. Throw some neon lighting underneath to finish the look.

Why is everyone so against louvers? If people are going back to it it's because it was that awesome/great. Somethings popularity doesn't have a time frame or expiration. It sucks that many people can't be them selves in an outmost positive way because so many other people are too busy judging them on their positive attitude. Seriously, does my existence affects your life that much? You have to dissect my happiness and personality? Louvers are pretty cool in my opinion and if you don't like it that also cool because the Z honestly looks pretty bad *** with and w/o them. In my opinion the cars look like mafia vehicles with louvers hahaha like if you have a gang of all black Zs with matching bodies and louvers I think it'd look pretty dope.

If you like them then go for it. Don't let anyone's opinion here sway your decision. You should build your car for yourself. However, when it's posted in a public forum, you're going to get strong opinions and obnoxious ones, too. That's just part of it. Louvers aren't my style as I prefer a very clean, tasteful sort of "OEM+" type build with my cars, however if someone else wants to rock them, go for it.:hello:

Yea it really looks bad. I think between that, and not being able to clean the rear glass I am going to pass.

FairladyZ40th 02-18-2016 10:24 AM

I'd assume you can remove it for cleaning?

Unless you use Velcro instead of 3M tape.

3M tape is what I heard. Non removable.

Spooler 02-18-2016 11:22 AM

They were great in the 80's but window tint has done them in over time. My biggest complaint is they were noisy, especially with some base going in the radio. If you are in a Window tint restricted area, go for it. The 80's model ones would raise up so you could clean the window.

But they where also screwed into the body. Not sure if I would want to drill into my car.

Probably the way these should have been designed is with a frame that is attached with 3M and the louvers as a separate piece removable from the frame (clips or hinges).

thank you. How did the install go for you ?

madeinjapan 07-19-2016 12:36 PM

out of stock !

Desert Rat 07-19-2016 04:31 PM

I'd be interested in these. Arizona sun is a nice thing to get a break from. I have a plastic louver on my Z31 that is 3m taped to the window and is hinged for window cleaning. Not being hinged would be a deal breaker because cleaning the glass would suck doing between the slats.

I also had one on my old 240Z back in the day.

OldFart 07-19-2016 06:37 PM

I sent an e-mail expressing interest in purchasing a set about 2 months ago, received one back saying I was put on a list but haven't heard anything since.
