Default louvers

I am wondering if anyone knows where i can get a rear window louver
I have seen one pic on the forum of a c4 with a window louver
if you have more please post them
also what is your opinnion on louvers
i have a blackonblack 86 coupe and am considering blacking out all lights and installing frount fog light louvers and tail light louvers, tinting the side windows and i think that a rear window louver is better than tinting over the heating element. :cheers:

Yes, tint looks cool. Louvers?.....not a chance. There was a C4 I spotted at a local classic car show here today with louvers on the back window.
Looked nasty...REAL nasty. :U
