There are only 2 types currently being offered for the 05-07 Mustangs.
Moulded plastic ones, I forget the company; around $240.00
Metal aluminum ones, black powder coated, made by MRT; $399.00. You can find them sold a few places. MRT Direct & California Mustang.
I prefer the metal ones, but I'm biased.I'have the metal ones on. Didn't like the look of the moulded plastic ones.

I'd say wait for Saleen/Parnelli Jones louver to become available as they're the best looking one's I've seen.
Here's a link to some pics.

Saw no rear window louvers on that site, only several different kinds of side window scoups. We are talking of rear window louvers.

The PJ car louvers are 7 blades and look much better than the 6 blade ones from MRT but not yet available from any known source.

i like the PJ ones cause they stick onto the window the only bad side to that is you can not get to the window to clean it like you can with the MRT ones

that rear shot of the PJ ones a few posts up looks GREAT. Thats the first set Ive seen where from behind you cant see daylight up over the roof- my biggest turnoff on the MRT's...

if you could get whatever you wanted(doubtful) I'd still opt for something like the 69/70 hinges- I still would be a little worried about all that surface area being held on by a few square inches of foam tape...the VHB tape is tough, but thats what was on the wifes windstar mirror that fell off in the driveway a couple years ago...old school metal fittings might require drilling holes, but other than corrosion issues, they dont 'age' like the tape apparently might.
