Default Opinions Wanted: Black Louvers on PW

Hello,

Looking for some more opinions. I like how my car looks and I do get compliments, but I feel like the profile view is a little "blank." Aside from black 3.7 badges from LRS when they come out, I was also thinking of adding black louvers to my car. Right now, it has 20% tint along with the rear. The front side windows are 30%.

I would be adding the prepainted louvers from AM ($199).

Opinions appreciated. Thanks

I think the louvers would look good. Have you considered side "scoops" or a stripe to break up the "blank"? Have fun with whatever you decide!

what kind of louvers are you thinking about getting? if they are anything but SHR flush mount...waste of money IMO. The SHR flush mount louvers are a little more expensive, but they are hands down the best looking and you can see perfectly out of them...well worth the cost! black or white ones would look sweet on your car! and instead of the 3.7 badge, a tri-bar pony badge would also look good!

Don't think I got the louvers 100% correct.

i'd say go for it, love what you've done with it so far, maybe some black side stripes to break up the blank? C stripes or L stripes

Im wondering what the Shelby Stamped Aluminum Rear Quarter Window Covers in Black would look like. It would give you that clean look and something you dont see on every other mustnag.

Those are hideous to say the least...thats why you dont see them on every other mustang! The rivets are just ugly looking and they basically look like a limo tinted window. seriously people...you cant go wrong with the SHR louvers...save a few more bucks and put on something that looks good and doesn't compromise your ability to look out of the windows (for the most part).
