nope

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

i dont know...for some reason it doesnt look right on your car...... maybe its the color and base wing thats throwing it off... i got the same louvers on my gta.. i think it makes the car look more badass... also it makes it look more old school and eighties... considering my car was made in 88 it fits that era i guess.... i think it looks better on certain color cars

i think its the spoiler

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

the 91-92's are just to curvy for that style louver, they look better on the squarer noses and raers and such, i dont think its the wing if anything the wing looks almost like it gives the louvers more emphasis, but in comparison to fast88gtas they just dont work on your year

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I think it looks great. People who chose to drive the 80's style birds will have bias of their own, so don't worry. I had them on my 88', but I really still like your set up! Nice car

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

to the OP i think you need a aero wing to pull it off... also all my windows are tinted 20 percent so it make the louvers look better to me in person

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

we almost have the same car...what kind of louvres did you get and where?

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

look like cragars to me, and they arent made anymore if they are

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

i want to see a 92 with a notchback with the color matched...i think it would look sweet.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

i like it, it looks different. i wonder what it would like without the wing also... jus saying lol

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Looks good. If you dont like em send em my way. :)

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Looks ok, too bad its for an earlier year third gen w/o a window mounted tail light, i have a set on my 92 z28 with the opening for the third brake light. As for using the whale tail, you have to modify the spoiler since ut also attaches to the hatch like the louvers do.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Yeah I noticed that. lol

I appreciate the honesty guys, but I really do like them. I dunno if it's because it's just something new or whatever. And you guessed right. They're Cragars. And a buddy of mine just let me have them. They were sitting down in his basement forever.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

yeah i have cragars on my car that have been there since 86, love em, interior isnt faded and its nice and cool stepping into the car in summer, like its been in shade all day

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I have different rims than you however. Mine are the gold lace rims that are not GTA style. I was thinking about buying a notchback for my car...I think it would look cool AND some black rims with a chrome lip.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

That'd be pretty sweet. I've been wanting these rims for a while now: http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/ima...heels-Rims.jpg

And I also snapped a couple pics today of the car after a wash.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

heres some pics of my car and a few mods

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

ordered a set of louvers with the opening for the light...im excited

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I think it looks more sharp with the TA wing but I still like it as is. I'd say keep it.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Looks good....tint the side windows.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Looks soooooo much like a mach 1 fastback to me (which is the best stang ever made IMO) but gotta love louvers. the look cool AND keep that garsh darn sun out. hate getting into a 110 degree car. seatbelt as hot as a stove eye lol

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I don't like louvers on any car.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

It's an old thread but I hope the louvers are still on. I really like them.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

technically you have louvers on your car

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I don't care too much for them either.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

not a huge fan of them but they do look good on some cars

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I've have to say I love the look of your car. Very stealthy reminds me of a stealth bomber. Nice job.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

kinda looks like it belongs in a "Batman movie" don't it !

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Personally I think louvres look mighty bad on anything!
They remind me of an armadillo! haha:lmao:

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I like louvers. Would i put them on my car? No. But that does not mean i hate them. Very old school solution to block ou sun and add appearance to your gm pony car. I have to have that streamline you get with the plain glass hatch. Had louvers on my 87 i had 10 years ago. Loved them back then.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

wish I could find some factory louvers for my IROC

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

The difference between the factory louvers and the Cragar or Kobell louvers is the overall shape. The factory louvers are low profile and follow the body tighter. The cragar set sits high on the window and above the roof line making them look awkward. Compare the looks of the original poster and the black trans am with the 86 louvers. You'll see what I'm referring to.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

they dont sit up that much higher

nice tails!!

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Hows the view with them on ?

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Those louvers rock!

That's exactly the looks I was looking for my '88 GTA when it gets done.

Sent you a PM.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Looking to the rear you can see everything without much hindrance because you'll be looking at the flat sides of the louver and through the paces between the panels.
It's darker overall and actually a really nice view.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

With sound

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

i so dig the louvers look of the first two posts! the one-piece style, without any CHMSL... mmmh :) who makes these anyways?

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

I've got another question guys..

I made my own topic about it but now I see why I'm not getting any answer.. There's like A LOT of topics about louvers. I've spent lots of hours looking but I REALLY can't find an answer on my question.

I've got a '91 firebird whale tail spoiler on my '88 camaro and I'm looking for louvers.
No wipers, no third brakelight.

Problem is, I don't know what louvers will fit due to the whale tail spoiler.
I can't find any pictures or topics about louvers together with a '91-'92 whale tail spoiler.

If someone could please help me.... I would REALLY appreciate that! :) A LOT! :) :)

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

the spoiler wont come in contact with the louvers or else it shouldnt. pics of said spoiler and the dilemma you think your having?

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Thanks Tylercamaro!

I do have a picture of the mentioned spoiler and my dilemma. It's for the blue camaro. As you can see it has a '91 whale tail* firebird spoiler (like the red 91 firebird in the picture).
I think they were only available in '91 and '92 as the whale tail changed with the 4th gen.

* I'm not sure if it's called the whale tail spoiler though..

Attachment 354294

Dilemma
Spoiler comes close to rear window and I'm not sure if a louver would fit.
I can't find any pictures of firebirds with this spoiler and louvers.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Those spoilers came on 91/92 Formulas & GTAs only. You will have to mod the wing to make any spoiler fit with that type spoiler you have.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

i dont think the sides are more the issue i think its the back of the wing that comes too far forward that wont alloiw louvers to fit.

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

Yea that's where I'm worried about..
The sides are somewhat the same as my grey GTA. But it comes very far forward close to the window. In the middle it measures 4 cm (1.6 inch) from my window to the wing.

Were louvers an option on the 91/92 Formula/GTA? Because I can't seem to find it in the RPO's..

Re: Louvers on '92 Firebird. Yes or no? Lots of pictures.
 

i don't think they look right on ANY of them,,,,rattally pos jmo
