opinions needed to louver or not to louver

one more for the louvers

 

Wouldn't it be neat to make the louvered panel removable - maybe with some tabs with countersunk holes to screw it to the edges of the decklid......

or.. get another decklid - have one with louvers and one without.

I have them but wondered why when the sanding and rubbing had to be done

 

Go for it, I like the look.

 

louver it is. but when i got started i couldn't get it to line up wright and come to find out the last row is spaced out a 1/4 of an inch wider. should i cut out the sixth row and just go with 5 or cut out a 1/4 inch and weld it back? kinda wonder if i cut and weld it back if it will be noticeable.

 

I like the louvers....did you end up going with them or not....where did you get the sheet of louvered steel...gotta love some louvers!!!

 

well i still want to louver the deck lid. i tried to use the panel i had but it turned out badly. i could make a whole thread on ''HOW NOT TO LOUVER A DECKLID'' if i wasn't so in barest about how bad it went. so i got a new deck lid skin and im going to send it off to be louvered

 

I cant see the differance from the picture. can you really notice the spacing differance?

 

Yeah, it looks good with the louvers. Good pick.

 

Do it !

 

Having sanded my fingetips bloody on many Bugatti paint jobs I think I can offer an opinion. LOUVERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE MORE THE BETTER!

 

The37Kid obviously speaks from experience...and don't forget about the over-spray...spray the inside, over-spray on the outside...spray the outside, over-spray on the inside. You will get to know each individual louver intimately.

 

louvers leak water , attract insects, are hard to sand but fuck they look shithot.
