Looks good 
. I just received my 3dCarbon louvers last week and I'm quite happy with them. Nice fit and I actually like that they're "closed" (wasn't sure about this) makes the car feel more like the '65-'68 Fastback's from inside. It doesn't bother me at all not being able to see out the quarter window (I've been driving an '89 LX 5.0L and the '05 still has much better visibility than the '89).
I was waiting to see Street Scenes latest Gen II's but got impatient.
I still need to take pictures but I have to work it out with a sister since she's the one with a digital camera.

Just a little side note on the 3d Carbon Louvers:
I originally didn't want to put the blackout decals on the painted ABS. My idea (along with the owner of a local customizing shop) was to have the louvers painted, put the black decals on and then do a clearcoat over the top. In my mind, this would ensure the longevity of the decals. Of course, the best laid plans....The decals bubbled and had to be sanded off and new decals had to be placed as per the manufacturer's recommendation.
Props go to Kar Tunes in Sterling, VA for correcting the mistake without a gripe or extra charge and to 3d Carbon for shipping out a second set of decals fast and free of charge as well.[attachmentid=22432]

The back of each louver is closed so u put a decal on to make it appear that there is no material there. My question is that if you wanted to could you cut out that area? to make them look a little better. I sortof wanted to make some kind of grille to put in there.
