Love the Classic look, but just not my cup o’ tea. Good thing about doing this, you can always uninstall them if the look wears on you.

BTW beautiful car Booher!

how bad do they mess up aerodynamics is the major questions. I don't like the look either and i suspect it really hampers air flow.
I liken it to when pick up truck drivers would drive with the tailgate down or with the tailgate nets and claim it helps fuel mileage, when in reality the tailgate up is much better aerodynamically.

Mixed feelings about it. I enjoy looking at them on other peoples cars but I won't be able to convince myself to get it for myself. Seems a little too much to have on a daily for myself.

Not for me due to one reason, cleaning them and under them. I’m pretty lazy though.

I love em on my car, I feel like it's a love hate for some people. Gives it more of an aggressive look. I went with American authority. Sure it's a pain when u gotta take em off to wash ur car and all, but I think it's worth it. If u do buy them don't use the crappy 3M tape they give u. Go out and buy the gorilla glue double sided tape it's the black role that holds up to 30lbs use that instead. Mine almost flew off on the highway 😅 haven't had any problems since I out new tape on

Used to have 'em on my firebirds and camaros in the 80's and early 90's, but no interest anymore. But if you like it...go for it.

Tbh, I hated the ones from the 80 and 90's they were just like flat blades. These have angles and edges to them, that's why I like them. Anyways, here is a couple more pics if you're on the fence. You are absolutely right though, people love them or hate them. I will say 100% of people that have seen it in person love em. Pictures dont always do em justice. If you do get them, definitely use a better double sided tape, if you are in a very hot climate like me, you need to add another let's call them studs. I added the one in between the stripes. Also, recommend opening up the holes a tiny bit to make it easier to remove and install. If not, you'll get stuck on the threads alo and is very annoying. Cleaning isnt terrible I wash my whole car, then take the louvers off last and hit the window and louvers. Also, got tip, once installed, tap around all the edges to listen for slight rattles, pull it off and throw some foam tape there and you're good to go. I have 2 10" l7's and the louvers dont rattle. Hope this helps! Oh, and get them painted, looks way better than the plastic finish it comes in.

Way too busy and does not flow with this body style IMO. Looked good on early late 60/70s Mustangs. Louvers on a 5th or 6th gen looks like the owner has run out of ideas to make his Camaro look cool. No offense at all to the people who have them. Just one guy’s opinion.

I kinda like 'em. ....ehhh, I don't see picking up a set for my car, but they're alright. I like 'em more than a lot of the more modern appearance mods I see.

In 1984 I put them on my S10, a lot better looking today but always going to be a pain to clean under.
