Rear window louvers
I have a rear window louvers off of my 1990 Iroc-Z. It is in immaculate condition. A few tiny nicks, but no bends in any of the slats. This is the factory aluminum one. If you can pick it up locally that would be great but I am willing to ship to the right buyer. It has the all important upper mounting brackets which I have pictured below. It is missing the bottom mounting brackets, but the special bolts are still there (also picture.. poorly). For some fitments the bottom bolts might just slot right in. For others you might have to fabricate something, but it should be fairly simple. Sorry I couldn't preserve all the brackets, I have no idea where the bottom ones are! $300 obo

Re: Rear window louvers
Very interested. Can you take and post better pictures? In picture #2, it looks like it would fit on a flat rectangular window, and fit over the curved rear glass of a third gen.

Re: Rear window louvers
I don't think those a factory. I suspect they a re 3 piece design, and there are supposed to be a pair of side panels to go with it.

Re: Rear window louvers
They definitely aren't factory MoJoe. Factory were 3pc.. but they were interlocked and glued together, aluminum middle section and a hardened plastic material for the sides.
here are the factory louvers i used to run on my 88 up until last year..
-
Any photos from when they were on the car? They look moreso like a Supra or Foxbody mustang louvers.. as MoJoe said, it looks to fit a flat rectangular hatch not the curved ones on our cars. If they were for our cars they would've had 2 side pieces that sit flush to the curves and they are called Shadow Louvers.. but even that i doubt unfortunately the molds are different and you would know right away if it were missing pieces. Other Louvers were Cragers.. they curved with glass.. and Astra Hammond Louvers and they curved with glass as well
These are Shadow louvers on my buddy's Bird.
and what type of phone? lol I could take better photos with my Flip phone years ago.. First step to taking photos.. make sure the area is well lit.. take them outside and take photos.. Not a room where you can barely see due to shadows
