the louvers look amazing. I could justify it right now if I could get them painted, but louver + paint... I'd just have to wait for now.

Any side window tint is illegal in Illinois anyway. I might just do the back 15%.

Dave how hard was the install? My Roush louvers are in the shop now and we using a heck of alot of double sided tape. I hope they don't blow off. I ran out of time and had to come to work, so I didn't get them put on today. Maybe tomorrow morning.

The install was fairly easy and straight forward and took maybe 30 mins. Hardest part was cutting out the mounting pattern and that wasn't hard but just a PITA. Did you use more mounting tape than came with the kit then? Mine are really mounted tight and I don't see them coming off from driving at any speed.
