Daniel, they look good. I am trying to figure out if I should get some. But let me ask everyone, what happens to any water that gets inside? I dont see any drainage holes. I know some can be removed or swung out but others are just taped on. This bothers me. It seems after a while this could deteriorate the parts and paint. Maybe even cause leaks. Anyone know?

Water runs right through them, there's a really small gap betwee the louvers and the car on some sides so the water won't "build up" if that's what you're worried about

That is why I went will Roush.. think about it.. where does the water stand/stay after you wash your car.???. right there at the 1/4 windows.. at least mine does.. I think some of these cars will have a rust problems ((( in years to come ))) but still a rust problem.... again why I got the Roush ones..

RE: Installed Roush Louvers!
Sorry missed some of your questions in the post. My louvers are 3DCarbon. Got them from Atlantamustang.com prepainted. I also cut a small gap in the bottom tape to allow water to drain. Of course it doesn't rain much in Texas anyway

just a guess.. just call Roush at 1-800-59-ROUSH , and they will send you them for free .. trust me as I have been there and done that. but with different stuff from them...
best of luck

RE: Installed Roush Louvers!
I just installed the Roush louvers on my 06 Black GT yesterday. You can see some pictures of them here:

I took pictures of several different angles and even interior shots to show what the driver might see while driving and looking over your shoulder. I think they look great.
