Cleaner for louvers?

I just got some window louvers today for $20 bucks! They are really dirty because they been sitting in a junkyard. What is the best stuff to clean them with and to protect them with. Also a small part of the corner is missing, what is the best method to fix it.

Also I don't think anybody answered my question about if 225/55/16 tires would fit my stock 16 inchers that have 245/50/16's stock.

soap and water is the first step to washing off all the crap on those sweet louvers....

To clean the louvers I would recommend 1Z Plastic cleaner. Then to protect them use 1Z Tiefeflger.

Here is what it will look like once it's clean and protected.(Yes I know the picture shows a truck trim but its all I have)
