louvered headlight covers????

Anyone know where I can get louvered headlight covers? I was looking for a cowl induction hood on Americansportscar.com and i saw this picture of a ThirdGen Camaro with louvered headlight covers. I emailed them but they don't sell them and they don't know where to get them. I've done searches but can't find them.

I've never seen them before. They're kinda neat, but why would you want them?

They are different and I've never seen another car with them. But I would have to paint them white to match the car. I've been looking for awhile with no luck.

I don't mean any disrespect, but I don't really care if people think they look tacky or not. The bottom line is they are different from the regular black outs and I like them. You all look like clones by adding the same exact accessories to your cars, where is the individualism? I posted a thread to get help, I thought that was the whole point to this site.

In defense of black outs.... There is something just bad-*** about a sleek and waxed IROC with blackouts on the headlights and the tails and some tinted windows....

Hooch89 - If it means anything I'm with you 100%. I've been looking for those for the last 3 years. I even e-mailed ASCD to see if they could tell me where to get them and no dice. Heck, it's a posting on my web site:
http://www.crzyz28.sytes.net/parts_search.html

So if you manage to find them, I am interested in knowing where and how I can get some of my own!!!
