Back in the 80's louvered everything was in style(head lights, tail lights, hoods, windows, etc..). I dont see them now but to have an orginal 80's car I guess to put them on would seen right.

I have to agree with him. On that car it looks good, maybe because of the angle that it's being shown. But still not my style.

You dont like them, you stated your opinion already, stop commenting unless it is productive...

That car doesn't look that bad. I'd love to see what it would look like if the louvers were painted to match the car. (Hint hint photoshoppers)
