RE: Need help deciding on louvers
The hubcapsplus are a thin ABS but not thin enough that they won't stand up to rough handling during washing or whatever.Nor do they flex at all at over 100 MPH from what I can tell.They COULD be a bit thicker but then again, I'm VERY satisfied with them.

RE: Need help deciding on louvers
ORIGINAL: Nuke
I have the ones from hubcapsplus (wheelskin). I love how they look and the install is easy (if not a bit nerve wracking if you don't have steady hands). The color match was PERFECT.
I don't think they're flimsy. As far as the glass is concerned, I can get in far enough with a rag when I wash the car so any dirt that you'd NOTICE from inside can be cleaned. But since the louvers are only partially "see-thru-able", you don't notice the dirt (much) anyway.

RE: Need help deciding on louvers
I bought these louvers and in the process of painting them myself. I love the fact that they have more slats and sit more flush to the body then other "louvers" except for the SHR's of course.

Hold on!
I hope I caught you in time because Hubcapsplus is a site sponsor and you get a discount when you let them know you're a Mustang Forums member. E-mail or call them them for the code, or look here for more examples:

I bought my painted yellow louvers from them and the paint was a perfect match. I liked them so much I took photos and they are still using them on their website!

They also sell the SHR ones (and others), which I think are the best, but I didn't want to be stuck with one color or not be able to take them off easily if I got tired of not being able to see clearly out through the plastic.
I recently removed the yellow louvers and put on the new black ones they sent me so I'll need to take new photos. This was from last Sunday's show:
