Default Just installed 1/4 window louvers

Received them on Monday was going to wait til the weekend, but I couldn't take it any longer. Not happy with the after shots, but very happy with the product.

So the few things I have left that I want to do are chrome 18" deep dish Bullits and CAI/tuner combo. Obviously on the higher price side. Any thoughts on easy/inexpensive mods I can do? Thanks for looking.

An inexpensive idea would be to add some Welts to your door. Since my interior is Charcoal, I wanted to break it up with some Blue accents;



Or get some embroidered headrest wraps...I took this picture before I got the louvers;

A little more expensive, but still relatively cheap mod would be mirror caps.
IMO, they really pull the exterior together. Then again I'm a little bias.
Its looking great, I love the louvers.

Thanks Tanner. I really like the mirror cover by DG custom:

I really like both of those. I had fogotten about the welt. I still have the website saved in my favorites. How many feet did you order?

Where did you get the headrests from?

I was also thinking abount an armrest cover like this:

Louvers look great!
Front chin spoiler or lowering springs would add a nice touch.

I can't remember how many feet it took for the Welts, that was back in '07, but I know it wasn't much.
Here's the link for the Headrest Wraps;

The wife wants to know where you found the welts for the door?

@ Hotwheel - Those mirror covers would probably look good on your Stang because you are going with a chrome look over the black accent look. I haven't ever seen them in person though.

I completely forgot about a chin spoiler. Yes that would be pretty sexy.
