Couple questions:

1. Where did you get the chrome inserts in between the A/C *****? I like the look.

2. Where did you get your louvers? Where do the screws/bolts attach to? I like the idea of them being attached rather than taped.
thanks man.. i appreciate it..

1 - Action Artistry, i got from www.mossmuscle.com - http://www.mossmuscle.com/Shop/ViewP...eIndexID=84049

2 - My louvers are Roush Aluminum Louvers - which are actually screwed to metal hinges, but the backer plate of the hinge is dbl-sided tape to the rooftop of the car... and they have glass clips that clip onto the top of the rear glass also. i wasn't 100% sure of these at first.. but they've been on for 3 yrs now, and up to 140mph and haven't lifted.. lol

One more question about the louvers, how much did it cost to have them painted? Or did you do it yourself?

I saw them on the Moss website, they were about $40 less than the pre-painted ones that use 3M tape.

i just bought them straight from roush, pre-painted.. they're screwed into brackets that are held on with 3m dbl-sided tape..

$267 painted.. $170 no paint.. plush shipping i'm sure

some stuff i painted myself, i got these like the second thing i bought for my stang and didn't want to screw them up at the time so i got the pre-painted ones.. i definately trust Roush's shop, they're flawless..

Thanks for the link, only problem is they don't have vista blue. Do you have any idea how much a shop would charge? Would they paint with them on or off the car?
