Can the primer be done in one of the colors? That might help you make up your mind.

 

Now that sounds like a great idea!!!!!!

 

Going with yellow. I just talked to the paint guy.
It was an honest question. Black does flow with the car well.....but besides that, the yellow makes it blend better and look more retro like the old shelby louvers.

Thanks everyone!!

 

It stands out a lot as it is with the stripes. If you want to rice it go with black. If you want to give it the full fastback look, match its color.

 

I like yellow better. It will look more integral with the car. Black would look like you're waiting to get them painted!

Glad you chose yella.

 

Yellow on the outside, black on the inside... How do you like your Gen 2 louvers? Did you hold them up against the car yet? Where they what you expected?

 

They are awesome Mike, after carefully adjusting them, the fit is great. I like the squared off look MUCH better then the Gen1 that were rounded.

Much thicker then the ROUSH louvers, making them more sterdy. The ROUSH ones were almost a bit flimsy on the open part of the louvers. I did like those too, just a bit to aggressive and big for me.

I am taking my car to the painter tomarrow and leaving it there, so he match the color.

Oh and Mike, he is only charging me $50 to paint TOTAL ( his costs for mixing the color) , no prep charge or labor charge. We use him for our vehicles at work, so he said I earned some "bonus points"...... right on!!

Should have them back in a few days, he is preping them tonight, pre-baking them to get rid of all the surface dirt, etc, primer, bake, color, bake, and clear coat, bake.
I will have to ask him about black on the inside....why not yellow?

I will be sure to post pics when installed.
YELLOW IT IS!!!!!!!!!! I am no ricer...............

 

Glad to hear you like them. I havent seen the Roush ones off the car so I cant comment on their quality. ( besides, that would be bashing a competitor!) Id do them flat or satin black on the inside only because of glare. If you do the inside in yellow, you might get some glare off of them. Just my opinion. Be sure to post pictures!

 

I voted for black because they will work nicely with the stripes. THe yellow will blend into the car, but I think the black will look really nice.

Whatever you decide ... can't you find black ones to hold up to the car so you can see it?

You're going to forget about the one you didn't get and love the one you do.

Enjoy them

 

If I had yellow, I would go with the black but would also get the rear window louver in black.

 

I voted yellow, and glad to see you went with that. Black would be risky, and could be too drastic. Yellow gives it the original look of the earlier fastbacks.

 

Rene'... definitely go with flat black on the inside. Especially since you have the charcoal interior. It'll flow with the inside better. Having them yellow would make them stand out like a sore thumb (sorta like panting the outside of them black on your yellow car ). When you look back out the 1/4 windows once they are on, you want your eyes to focus directly on what's outside showing through the openings in the louver, which will be basically be white on black... big contrast. If you have them yellow, and you turn around to look out of them, good luck trying to focus on what's in those little slits with all that yellow.
