Default Anyone purchased these louvers?

I'm looking for painted louvers and was wondering if anyone has purchased these from hubcapsplus.com:

http://www.wheelskin.com/dg-3180.html

If so, is the paint a perfect match, and is the dealer reputable? Thanks!

They almost look like flush mounts but I know they're not. They look good but how do you clean the window glass if it needs cleaning?

Oh yeah...hadn't thought about not being to clean the windows. I did a search and found someone here that was happy with them, though. Maybe I should expand my question a bit. First, here's louvers I am looking at and what I see as the pros and cons for each kind:

1. The ones listed in my original post from HubcapsPlus are cheap, but cannot be removed for cleaning.

2. Roush louvers are a little expensive, but can be removed for cleaning. I assume they offer little to no visibility, though.

3. Silver Horse Racing flush mounts. I think these look best to me and I've heard they offer the best visibility. The only problem I have about these (other than price) is worrying that the glass shop might mess the car up installing them.

I'm comfortable with the cheap ones from HubCaps Plus if they can keep the windows from getting real dirty. I'll be parking the stang outside. Geez, this is a hard decision. Sorry for yet another louvers thread, guys!

I like Silver Horse Racing flush the best but they're costly. Over 300 bux for paintedones then, like you said, installation charges and crossing your fingers the installer won't mess anything up.

Maybe with the hubcapsplus ones a rag or piece of one can be fished in through the louvers for cleaning. I think they're pretty cool for the cost.
