1972 cutlass louvers (rear)

I was wondering and i've been staring at my car for days.

Then it donned on me what I wanted, REAR WINDOW LOUVER.

But it seems no matter how I look for it, it only suggests hood louvers and I don't need hood louvers.

I recently detailed my car black on the lower door trim, hood louvers, and my bumpers. And my vinyl top.

Now I want to finish the look and find louvers for the back

(Posting pics of car in a few)

I kid you not, I was thinking the exact same thing the other day! I saw this kid with a '72 Le Mans, and they looked awesome. It just sets the car apart, you know? Unfortunately, I don't think they'll be easy to find.

I just think it would look great, beefy tires, maybe buy a second hood and put a 2-3" cowl induction, it would be a nasty car

The 1970s called. They want their louvers back.

I don't remember ever seeing aftermarket rear window louvers for a Cutlass, even in the 1970s. Custom made is your only option.
