Re: glaze, wax, all day for carshow .pics inside

Oh man OUCH!!! Glad you didn't do that phew! I come from Brewster Ny. But I also drive all over the place. My car is Yellow with black IROC rims, they used to be silver and it has a lot of painted graphics. Probably wasn't but funny story to hear. Man you make me jealous with your louvers. I have a set in my garage now, same ones. But I don't have the 4 tabs that go around the hatch. Awesome car!! Where are those pics taken?

thats funny i was seeing a girl up there for little bit. pictures where taken down in new jersey car show. also im sure you can find those tabs somewhere on ebay. those louvers are so hard to come buy. id search my a$$ off for those tabs. maybe even a nation wide gm parts search.

Re: glaze, wax, all day for carshow .pics inside

Haha that's pretty funny. Yeah I love the louvers and I tried to make my own tabs but they just aren't working. I have asked multiple times here on the board and nobody has them, and I don't know the part number for them to search at a dealership. I was starting to think about getting the ones from classic industries but then said that's a waste of money. Oh well maybe one day. Another thing is the junkyards around me have nothing good. I would pay some good money to have them too. Carnuba wax smells so good. mmmm
