Well, I had my louvers installed about two weeks ago. Today, I got out of my car and noticed that one of my louvers was missing. 
I had only driven about 10 or so miles today around town and only hit 65 mph at the most.
The louver was either A) ripped off by a vandal or
B ) ripped off by the force of the wind.
In either case :notnice:
I tend to think that the louver was ripped off by the wind because there was no 3m adhesive residue left on the window; it was definitely a clean break. When I pulled off the right side louver it left adhesive on the window. I must say that I am surprised because it took a significant amount of force to remove the right side louver. So I guess I am out a little over $300.
If anyone is interested in decent condition legend lime painted right side louver email me.-I'll cut you a great deal!

That stinks, have you tried to contact Ernie at 3D? Maybe he will take pity on you and give you just one???

I backtracked part of my route. The other parts of my daily drive (rts. 7 and 28 here in N. Va) are roads that are full of cars traveling at near highway speeds. I have resigned myself to the fact that it is gone.

As far as contacting 3D Carbon, that is an idea.

I had a pro do it. This is the same company that put on my 3m protective clear bra on the front of my car.
