Actually with the wing gone I gained 25% more visibility out the back window. The wing always blocked the view out the bottom of the window

Took me three years to find it and three more to get it painted lol. It looks great on the front end. Love the look.

Definitely cleaner dewinged. The louvers seem like a necessity in PHX, so I'll give u a pass on those, lol.

Sorry, Daryl. I mis-read the post. I thought you had removed it altogether.

Kevin you youngster its a statement. When I was in highschool in the 80s every car had em... Mustangs, Camaros, Trans AMs, 240 and 280 Zs, Datsun B210s , Chevy and Ford trucks you name it. Tint was really not around quite yet and in AZ it was louvers.
Even today Mustangs with the popularity of the side louvers to create the 67 fast back look are now returning to louvers on the newer mustangs for the rear window.
Its generational thing. Unlike the wing these are easily removed. understand?

LOL oh hell no... That was the most bad azz look of that kit. I think it compliments the front end. Rest of the AO Forced Air system (Not so Much) I will stay with the Marc Coplan open element air blaster.

I've been in the valley of the sun many times. Louvers are a minimal requirement. I'd even add a second air conditioner.:)

In August this year the HVAC control recorded 123 on I-17 on the drive home. Granted its on Concrete and hard top but damn. Many years ago Phoenix Hit the offical temp of 121. The planes were all grounded as the Air flap tables were not computed beyond 120 so they had to wait 4 hours until the temps cooled down to 119. Miserable eh? Well now its prime play time the highs are in the low 80s :)

Me too thats why I tolerated the wing when I returned from Iraq in 2006. I knew someday lol it would be gone. Only took 7 years.....
