Maybe a little pricey, but be nice fellas -- they're new to the forum!

And welcome, by the way...

I'm curious: How do you reproduce these? I would assume, if they were plastic, that a mold would have to have been made of an original, and then made for injection of liquid plastics... These being metal, was the same process used, or did you hammer them out by hand or stamp them?

The price is a bit high for me as well, but maybe with time and sales it will come down. I think at less than $100 say $99 and their sales would increase. At this point they probably have to charge more to break even with the cost of getting started nowadays. :)

Ok guys here is how it will work ... i can cut you guys a break and sell them a little cheaper, all the proft goes back into make new parts for these fwd dodge cars, we are building turbo kits that we want to sell to the public, these will be direct bolt-ons and you guys can pick the trims of the turbo, and will include new steel braided lines and your choice of injectors. from 42 trim to 70 trim ........ prices will be around $900 or less.

If any one is interested in the louvers at a discount send me a private message and i will see what i can do on how many of you guys want a set. These are going over very will on the turbododge forum and a lot of the guys are buying them on there.

And to be very honest we have sold a good many of these already, I cant wait till next years car show at Carlisle, Pa.

The Louvers are being lazer cut. Right now they are being Wet painted, but the price is also up there so i can get them powder coated. Im also let you pick what finish you all want on them from flat to glossy to wrinkle finish.

This is what I'd like to see Mustang Louver

Something like this is sharp, I see them occasionally around town on mustangs and really set them off.. They are usually painted to the color of the car, I'd want black though to match my black paint job. But this style is great.. More muscle looking!

I know that there are similiar aftermarket for the tona that look similiar, but are metal I believe. Really hard to find this style.

They do look nice, but just as expensive.

I don't get it... the "mustang" style louver, as shown here, bulges out more, is that it? There were multiple louver styles available?

I mean, for Daytonas?

yeah i put a set of my louvers on ebay for some people that asked about them, and yes back in the day there were 2 sets of louvers out there .... one was the shelby style and the other was the direct connection louvers .... shelby's were plastic and the direct connection louvers were metal and matched up with the rear window louvers ....


and yes my other company is:
