Take a look at our Flush-Mount Louvers - over
500,000 data points taken from the factory glass on all surfaces using a
laser scanner to insure a perfect fit using OEM sealing techniques and
materials. The design is so innovative and functional that it was
the only choice for the 2008 and 2010 Ford Racing Cobra Jet Mustangs, even
when there were other offerings for comparable cost or less on the market
they could choose from. It has also received a U.S. Patent, again
something no other louver in production for the 05+ Mustang can lay claim
to.
We use Lexan, one of the most expensive and strongest plastics
available, that has been UV stabilized and tinted for years of
trouble-free use in the harshest of climates. Our piece is lighter
and stronger than the glass it replaces.
Everyone else wants to make a "stick-on" louver that goes outside
the car and sits in the wind stream - the now dirty and un-cleanable glass
sitting underneath. They made these parts because it was easier and
much cheaper to produce from a poured urethane or simple mold. The pieces
are inexpensive to paint because there is no real masking required, and if
it falls off in a few months, so what - they already have your money!
Our louvers are made right here in Florida one
at a time in a 300 TON Injection press, heated to an operating temperature
near 500 degrees Fahrenheit to melt the plastic and make it flow evenly
through the mold - resulting in a part so strong we parked our F350 Dually
right on top of it without damage to the part! And once again, we
are priced competitively with processes and materials costing half as much
to produce!
Try that with the competition's part!!
Visibility? Well when we were designing our parts, we angled the
louver to optimize the view from the driver's seat over the driver's right
shoulder, and made the pieces as deep as was practical to increase the
viewing area to the outside. We did this without interrupting the
appearance of the part from the outside, because if the part is a
"stick-on" the only way to increase visibility is to either 1) Open the
gap between vents further or, 2) make the vents stick out further and
further from the car. Since we've owned classic Mustangs and know
how bad it can be when you can't see out of your blind spots while
driving, we didn't want to introduce new blind spots to an otherwise clean
design car like the S197 Mustang.
