I considered those when I bought mine. The ones I got were even cheaper, though:

They sound very similar except for the number of louvers. The SLP louvers that I bought are also plastic, and they simply stick on with 3M tape. I've been happy with them.

I don't know what brand they are. Can't see how that matters since most people will only care about the look.
They are one of the few that come pre-painted, but there have been issues with the prepping of the inside. Some have reported that they aren't painted on the inside, as mine weren't.
Oh, by the way, that's my 2005 GT in the photos!

I think they are the same made by DG Custom Auto. I looked at many different styles, but I like them the most. Mine did not come painted inside. And there was some overspray or primer on the insides. A little rubbing alcohol and it came right off! I don't know what the big deal is about them not being painted on the inside....you can't see that part anyway...it's too dark from the shadow.

BTW, the paint match was perfect. "Installation" took 5 minutes...mostly making sure they were lined up with an even gap on all sides. They attached to the GLASS with 3M tape. Make sure it's right the first time!

They look like the unpainted JC Whitney's I bought several months ago for $70.
