The OPs sig shows ROUSH louvers?
Are they not installed with 3 brackets and three 8-32 button head screws?
I was scared of someone removing the allen screws and did not like the
steel screws Roush provided so I got some replacement 18-8 stainless
steel tamper proof torx button heads and painted them the body color.

yep, they took the louvers and the brackets
I work at a mall, was towards the back of the lot so the least amt of people would park next to me. Don't know how the **** this went on unnoticed it was a busy night.

Does anyone know are the american muscle ones the exact same as roush just w/o the brackets?

I feel for ya... that sucks! Now I'm worried that mine might get stolen if I park in the wrong area at the wrong time. Hopefully this doesn't become a common thing.

Someone tried stealing my window louvers once....they pulled and pulled and only got it partially off. I don't know if the 3M tape revolted against their thievery or if someone interupted their efforts.

I have had my car kicked, keyed, scratched, cut........only gave me opportunity to spruce it up more. I used to get wound up, but not as much anymore.
