why don't they make rear window louvers for the C5?

Considering some of the hideously ugly items they actually DO make for the C5, it is a wonder this idea hasn't made it to market. I wouldn't buy one, and they would look fugly, but you know people would buy them. The same people they targeted with the C5 split-window add-on and so forth. The more money than brains crowd. 
Man is this ever the most truthful thing I ever heard !

I can see the catalog ad now: "Improve your 1997-2004 Corvette's Rear View with Billet
Aluminum Window Louvers. Give your C5 a dramatic, new effect with our precision fit rear window louver."
Of course, the catalogs would also have to offer an upgraded louver made of T-304 stainless steel for those C5 owners worried about rust or discoloring. This upgrade would
ensure years of lasting great looks and lots of thumbs up from other owners.

Yep I share your vision!! They would have to add "Improves aerodynamics and top speed as well as increases fuel economy!! Looked good on some of the late 60's early 70's,,that was 40 years ago,,and that is where they belong!!

People would buy them.
They would want them in chrome or fake carbon fiber.
Then they would probably want LED's mounted somewhere on them.
Once everyone has those, some genius would come out with a set that has that Jake thing stenciled on it.
