the only place i've ever seen them was on a car on ascd's website, http://www.americansportscardesigns.com. I don't know that they still sell them, if they ever did, but that is the only lead i can give you on finding them.



ps. Not my style at all, i wouldn't do it, but it's your car

That pair on the ASCD site is the only pair ever made. The guy who made them was discretely take out the desert and shot.



J/K. I don't know where to find any.

there are tons of thirdgens with rear window louvers. The debate over "good" or "bad" rages on about once a month! I think they look good on some cars, not so good on others.

...those headlight louvers look like a pep boys special of the week.

I'm really not feeling those at all. The red one looks ok, but the yellow one doesn't look nice at all. The louvers are all bent outta shape from the looks of it. These same feelings apply to the rear window louvers. I have never liked them, ever. My .02 is, stop looking for them, buy a nice set of blackouts and keep on cruising.

I think there's a string you pull that retracts those louvers into the hood. And a rod you turn that opens and closes them...

....wait a minute...

There's a black Camaro in Hoboken, Nj with the same ground effects as the red car. They look pretty mean in person... nice and low, if a little plain.
