She needs to be washed and shined tomarrow, so I can put them on.........sorry the pics are dark ( and make them look like a differrent color, it is raining out and the flash was not working)...the color looks great ..........

Thanks again Mike from Street Scenes!! I am very happy with them!!

I'm so glad that you went with the yellow instead of the black. It's gonna look great. Keep up the good work!

PonyGirl, Yellow was the way to go. Do yours only go to the end of the glass? Almost not covering the whole window?

PonyGirl: Would you please PM the info where you bought the louvers? I would like to order a pair. Also, did Street Scenes paint them for you or were they painted on a local body shop? Thanks.

They look awesome, Rene!

Glad you went with the yellow too. I'm starting to consider getting Legend Lime ones for my baby. I'm sure your pix will encourage others to buy them as well. Nice dressup!

Pony Girl- They look great! Make sure you clean the tape lines real good along with the glass- the tape should hold just fine. I have had mine on for several months and I had to pull them off to do some R & D work- they wouldnt budge! I think you made the right choice going with yellow!

They look great can't wait to slap mine on. I ordered mine almost 2 weeks ago (postal system is so slow) and the will be the color of the car. Took me forever to decide did I want them black or redfire. I went with redfire which is the color of my car.

Thanks guys.
I ordered mine through Mike....at Street Scenes ( the orange car guy)....( thanks Mike!).

I had a local shop do the prep and paint. Took 2 days. They said the prep work takes the longest (like Mike me it would) , just tomake sure they plastic was preped well to take the paint and clear coat with no fish eyes, etc. They turned out great.

As soon as I can, I will post pics of them on the car, hopefully later tonight.

Yes, the louvers MUST be positioned "just right" in order for them to fit perfect. After looking at it several times, I will make the edging around the window the same, and the louvers will be lined up perfect around the window.

Lets just hope the 3M holds when I am going 100 on the highway........

I am going to work on them right now.

It has been raining all day , so I have been watching " American Hot Rod" on the Discovery channel, but now the sun is out, and I am going to do them now.

Thanks

Don't scare me because I am thinking of getting the Street Scene's Ducktail too!

But then after seeing a brandy new Maxima with only 50 miles on it lose it's front wheel on a highway today it can't be that bad!
