The car's a little dirty. After the temp gets above freezing I'll post some better pics. The watersposts on the car are from where the rinse water froze.

Someone earlier was asking for a 'how's it blend w/ the interior' shot... Looks GREAT. Ignore all the shine from the seats. They're fresh and still damp w/ leather conditioner.

Nothing says classic Mustang like Louvers and a Ducktail:

I see the interior pics- and yes the ducktail adds to the 'classic' lines- great pics too- sure a lot of folks are wanting to see these in every color

I'll try and see if I can get that. It's kind of tough to do without stepping in all that white stuff.

05-GT the Torch red looks really nice, you did a great job on the install and the paint work. The contrast of the "white stuff" all around looks awesome.

Not to be last to the party, I figured it was time for me to get my own car done too, so that's what I was up to today (not really a day off, is it?) This was the first set done by the painter that is "finished" so pre-paint customers - this is what you should be expecting to see shortly. Word is we should be able to start shipping some this week.

Anyway, I took a lot more photos, based on some requests for clarifications in the instructions, plus I wanted it clear for the record that we're fitting just like the OEM glass (well better if you take your time and don't just jamb them in there), so I took some "before" shots of the passenger side, just so you could see how the gaps are not only not consistent, but also how far in the glass was sitting on our particular car. Be aware that everyone's comments on the instructions have been taken seriously, and we're going to update them one more time here in the coming days to the "final" release of them. Excuse the dirty car and the dark lighting, there's a bunch of fires locally masking the sun, and it is supposed to rain tonight, so no sense washing the car prior to the pictures today. I promise I'll wash it soon

Hmm... can't add an attachment at the moment... ok, I'll try again in a few minutes.

As much as I love the louvers, the rear window just seems to big and does not look exactly right with those very retro louvers...I cant wait to see a set next to the 3D window trim as I have on my car, I think are going to look great together!!

They look awesome marcello and that torch red looks amazing, hoping redfire turns out **** good too. They seem to blend great on the interior. Well just waiting on the call, and some sharp louvers.
