Default Good fitting window louvers?

I recently purchased some Roush style louvers from Ipexmotoring on eBay, they were rather cheap. Well they aren't molded correctly so when the front side bolts down the rear attachment point is in a constant state of tension and the 3M tape just won't hold it.

Are all louvers like this or just the cheap sets? I wouldn't mind dropping the money on a real set of Roush louvers if they fit right and the mounting hardware work as intended. Also thinking about the SHR flush mount.

If you're even thinking about the SHR ones you should just pull the trigger and get them, because there's no comparison to stick on ones.

Well The car is my wife's. She is very hesitant to see me gently disassembling her interior as I am closer to a bull in a china closet than a hollywood plastic surgeon.

I was reading the installation procedure for the SHRs and it seems Involved but nothing a person with patience couldn't handle.

Thanks guys, I love spoiler S197s, but mine is a Shelby GT and come standard wingless. And yeah, it does't look kinda like an old fastback, I appreciate the comment.

I got a thread here if you want to see how my car came to look so sexy

You know you don't have to remove the interior to remove the windows, right?
