Thank you. I originally wanted the Anthricite, but the more I see these, the more I like em on the MG.

The saleen louvers aren't hard to install, but they are semi permanent. They are glued on. I tried to apply them with 3M tape, no good. Probably due to the curvature, and the fact that the contact area is very thin.....I used Welders Contact Adhesive from Lowes, with a touch of Loctite 330 in the corners. After applying the adhesive, I taped em on for about 36 hours or so.....(yes, overkill) and there you have it.

Thanks again, and good luck with getting your Silver Bullitts.....

Mike

Are those GT badges on your car? Is it a GT with a pony grille??

Yes, they are GT badges, it is a GT. The grill is stock, with the addition of the AutoWebElectric Pony Corral, and fog light bezels....

I'm going for the Silver (lighter) color and my vert is Tourch Red with a black top and black lower door stripe.

I wish nonstopred would hurry up and get his take offs mounted so I can see if I like the look
