Grooming advice was an example, and I was just kidding, obviously. You have mentioned "your art" and described your strong desire not to hear any unsolicited opinions. This is an open discussion and you have to expect feedback that may not fit your desires. I gave you good advice about your louvers but am amused by your demand of not being influenced by opinion. Why not use a search engine if you do not want human reaction to your questions? That said, just ignore the advice you don't want, duh!; take what help you get, and get over the "don't tread on me" attitude. Your "opinion" warning statement was inflammatory and you are pretty much getting what you should have expected.
Good luck,
Dave

Yeah, kinda. But I was hoping after all these years to find something more integrated. I think aluminum for sure, has to blend with the lines from all angles. VENDORS! Ignore the haters. Whats a little CAD time? Quit playing WOW and come up with a prototype. Rennlist will fund the R&D just for the traffic.

I bought a Honda Accord hatchback new in 1982 (?) that had a factory METAL louver on the back. Not sure how close the size would be.

Nice.. so how is the the genius Jim going to figure out to attach it to the 928 Hatch...

ohh yeah....that shop in Pompano..they are good because they have 2 dozen cars in the street (so anyone) can break into them. Google maps are not reliable (they have a Red (928) lol what an idiot

We are ALL on the same side here...

G8RB8 it's OK!!!

People are just a little STRONG in their opinions on the louvers...

Don't go freakin' out...

Now how do we make it happen?

Custom design louvers made low profile to fit the various 928 models and look like original prototype fitments. You need to lose the 70's look and avoid creating a disco joke. A gifted designer and fabricator could pull this off. Your average guy couldn't. That's just my opinion, but my opinion is pretty good.
Good luck,
Dave

G8RB8, Did you happen to read the "NEW VISITOR, frequently asked questions" sticky. I suggest you read that entire post before posting topics such as this.

Did you use the search button?

Just kidding.

I love when someone new asks a question then gets flamed with these responses. He never asked if you liked the idea, only if it was available. I can't wait to constantly post, "fugly" when I see something I don't like on here. Ummmm automatics--that wanna look like 5 speeds....

Ease off people.

There is a commonly held idea the beauty is subjective. It is. Ugly is not.
