| Louvers and reinstalling them. See poll above. I liked the way they looked when I bought the car but removed them becuase of the rattle they caused. I now have the technology to make them quite again. I would repaint them also. |

Putting louvers on your car can get you banned from this site.  |

Oh please... good taste and the crew?
It was all of your mocking in the t-top shade thread that got you back thinking about it eh Dave?
Your car, go for it. I always liked them

Lol, I dont plan to sell them. I actually forgot about them until a couple of weekends ago. I havent seen another IROC with a factory set since the mid 90's and honestly thought they looked decent on the car. I just cant take the rattles.
I am going to drag them out of the attic and rebuild / repaint them.
Shultzy, I still dont like the T-Top shade idea. Louvers make way more sense |

When my buddy bought his new IROC in 85, it came with them, man they were really nice, his had locks and a lifting system so you could clean the back glass,
and his did not rattle till about 90 and it wasnt bad, we just turned up the cassette

This is the style that Dave has. I wouldn't run them on my car, but I can see the appeal of the whole throwback thing.
@ Dave, I say clean them up, paint 'em, and put 'em on the car for awhile to see if you still like them. |
