Stylish, and practical!!(Quarter Windows)

Made outa polypropylene, I ordered them online last week and painted them last night with 3M Mar-Hyde satin black trim paint to get as close of a match to the stock trim while being different enough to stand out. Designed to mimic the overly expensive (around $1200 last I looked) glass quarter window louvers on the 50th anniversary edition mustangs:

And I can still see out of the small windows!

I consider it my 30,000 mile gift to my Mustang (just hit that milestone unknowingly this morning); and it now the record holder for the car I’ve driven the most miles!

Love this car!

Before I scrolled down, I was going to note that they looked very similar, but less involved than the 50th Anniversary louvered glass quarter windows.

Not bad. I could even see an option for a couple more louver dividers rather than just two, and a slightly more fitted and tailored outside edge to meet and layer with the OE window trim piece.

And now you need some louvers for the rear window:

And rain guards!

And a bug deflector!

Very nice! I like these a lot better than most louvers.

So h ow hard is it gonna be to clean them? Do they just pop off, or what?

They’re attached via super strong 3M double sided tape so they’re never coming off. I just clean them like I do the rest of the car.

Looks good, but you lost me on the practical part.  Are they meant to shade/tint the window?

They’re practical in the sense I can still see out of them if I need too. Little to no reduction in overall visibility.

You need to put the darkest window tint available on those, but not paint.

I like it. Looks like louvers without the visibility impact of louvers.

GT350 wheels on any S550 might be my favorite thing

It’s possible, but if I tried to make it, theyd probably look like ass.

Right? It’s one of the best modern wheel designs.
