Please share with us all your choice in louvers, include pics as well.

Who did you have paint it and the price

How did it install, easy or hard

Are you still happy with it.

Where did you buy it from and the price?

How about the elenore type side scoops?

Thanks

I am with Kevin, SSE Gen 1s. Had them painted by Lanzini, they installed in 5 minutes, and am thrilled with them still.

Hey Kevin,

your car is looking sweet. I think it's begging to be dropped, though!

MRT louvers. Reason, they are the only ones I like. They don't keep the shape of the factory window and no blind spots

John, your car is so freakin HOT!! Love it...

I do like the MRTs as well. The squareish design is defintely more of a 60s feel to it..

Can you do me a favor? Can you send me pics of your car? I need front, side, and back. Lanzini wants to see the SSE kit installed, so he can give me a quote on paint.

He is going to bag on me about my rims as soon as he sees your car, LOL he is always telling me I gotta get some rims, and lower mine...

Send me a PM with your email address. Also, what is the limit size for email? My files are around 15MB each (RAW) but I can reduce them to whatever you need.

I prefer the MRT's - that's why I ordered them and am having them painted/installed as we speak. Second place is the Roush louvres, followed in a rough tie by the SSE and 3D Carbon gen. 2 louvres. No offense to those who like them, but none of the gen. 1 louvres do anything for me at all - I think the "bubble" shape of them just looks silly and weird.

Generation One's, though from the rear they tend to stick out a little bit more than I like.

Got Street Scene Generation Ones... They look FANTASTIC!
I wouldn't have it any other way. It integrates into the car very well. I know someone mentioned it sticks out a little when you look from behind, but I believe that is what gives the car such a nice look. They are really really nice, and I can STILL see from inside!

I get tons of compliments....A quarter are for the louvers...

None taken. No offense, either, but the MRT's look flat and dull. This gives the car a wider, more unique stance. UNIQUE! Its all good

I like the 3D CArbon louvers and the enclosed design they offer.
Dealer painted and installed. Nothing but compliments
