Ebay for under 320 is a great price
yeah, 3 bills for a piece of plastic is an unbeatable price lol. roush is what i got though and they do attach to the paint, not the window itself. Just to make sure they don't fly away I even drilled 2 holes on mine but that's optional. Just in case you wanna permanently take them offI'm pretty sure you could take off that double sided tape without damaging the OG paint.

I have the Razzi scoops, but got bored with them so took them off. I think the SHR louvers are the best, not only because they are the only functional louvers made, but because they integrate very nicely to. Roush, well they are kinda big and boxy looking, and really don't integrate well with the surrounding area so that they look like they were designed for the car

"functional louvers"?

I wonder what the function is for these plastic ones anyway!
Keeping the back seat dark?

I think functional ones would allow air in, like in these classic ones.

Holy crap batman, we have found another slick mod.
Yes, Yes, I approve.
I would go for something like that on a S197.
But than again, modern cabin ventilation has
come a long way with the filter and all.
Hmmmmm
I sure like the looks of the currently available
S197 "fake" louvers with the cut-out slots.

That kind of functionality is not needed with the upgrades in heating and cooling. Even if it were, the SHR louvers are the only ones that retain fully visibility and are not just plain stick-on's. Just because it doesn't mechanically function, does not mean it's not functional.

I wasn't going to pay those kind of prices for visual mods, so I went with the ones at wheelskin:
http://wheelskin.com/Merchant2/merch...t_Code=DG-3180

$184.99 painted with shipping! And yes, that's my GT on the website
And the view out is much better than the Roush, if that is a concern.
The Silverhorse ones are also available there:
http://wheelskin.com/ford-mustang-pa...cessories.html

The urge, must resist temptation to spend money now, [sm=headbang.gif] aahhhh

I was looking at the SHR ones, and I do like them, but they have raised the prices on the painted ones. They were undwer 300 awhile back. And didn't really want to spend that kind of money. Seeing these made me rethink that. I like the look of these. They don't look like they go around the whole window and bulge out. This product will replace the SHR's on my list.
