1st Official Exterior Mod

Hey gang...here's a couple of pics of my Kona with SilverHorseRacing flush louvers installed. Unless you consider tinting windows a mod, it's officially my first mod.

Next on my list? Just received some billet interior pieces from UPR and CJ Pony Parts...13 pieces in all. I'll post those pics sometime Sunday...Lou

How hard is it to keep the window clean behind those?

Oooooooh I've always liked those. IMO best looking louver for S-197's out there.

When these 1st came out, I heard that you needed to modify the interior trim panels to make them fit ... is this true ??

Please take some pics of what they look like from the INSIDE ... if they fit and look OEM from the inside, this just may be a mod for me because I absolutely LOVE the look from the outside !!

There are no windows to clean...the factory rear 1/4 windows are removed and replaced by the louvers.

Go here to see an illustration on how they are installed -

Here's a couple pics...they were taken using a flash...I'll try some pics using natural light tomorrow.

Btw, YES...there was some trimming involved
