This is slighly off topic but has anyone done a set of the Street Scene Gen 4 louvers yet? I like the look and they are removeable for cleaning underneath and the fastening points are still all on the glass.(Unlike the Rousch)

i have the louvers on here too, and i wouldnt worry about cleaning under them. you can spray water in there and they get clean. the only problem is when its winter ice chunks get stuck in there.

The Roush louvers fastening points are in fact on the glass also... they just look like they attach to the body... you 3M the brackets to the glass, and then the louvers attach to the brackets..

From the pics I have seen 1 of them touches the paint. I want to avoid doing any damage to painted surfaces. That's why I am drawn to the Street Scene. Not to mention I think they look better. Roush's are a little to large IMO.

it may touch (no harm in this...) but I assure you it does not FASTEN to the body, it fastens to the glass..

ok guys, the roush louvers DO attach to the glass and body equally. the brackets use 3m tape on the body and glass, then the louver attaches to the bracket with 3 hex bolts.


oh6vee6, you could attach just the glass, and use weather stripping or somthing to prevent rattle against the paint, but if you don't even like the way the roush louvers look, then this conversation doesn't matter! hahaha. any louver you go with will look good, there are soooooo many options for our cars!!!!!
