Default Received My Rear 1/4 Window Louvers From Wheelskin.com. Need To Paint Reverse Sides

I just received my rear 1/4 windows from Wheelskin.com. Priced cheap but be prepared to paint the reverse side because of over spray. I know you won't see it from the outside but if your windows are tinted and your color is not black you will see the paint reflections through the openings. Also, from the inside my kids will see the unfinished side. (Yes, they love to sit back there and go for a ride with Dad). I've sanded, cleaned and masked them off and I am waiting for the rain & humidity to pass before painting the reverse sides flat black. Another forum member prepared me of this info through email and the rep from wheelskin.com also told me this would be the case, but he suggested cleaning it off with Acetone but this would melt the ABS plastic.

The paint was a perfect match and the quality of the louvers is good, I just wish they did a better job on the reverse side.

This is the link http://wheelskin.com/dg-3180.html For people on a budget this is priced well. $180 for the lovers and $10 for the sandpaper & paint.


When installed I will post pictures.

Enjoy Your Rides!
