If yes, does it block the stock 3rd brake light?
Ikon has a photo on their facebook page that seems to indicate it has the cutout, but then again it isn't exactly a "high finish" there so the installer may have just done it themselves.

Thanks. I almost ordered the Icon because I thought it did not have the rear cutout.

Did you move your 3rd brake light then?

You might just want to call them to verify, but I'm guessing they wouldn't want the legal liability of producing a product that covered it up.

Thats a good idea. I want a full one with no cut out. I have moved my third brake light. And if I got louvers, id install a strip of LED on the underside of the top louver. Thanks!

Was going to bite the bullet and buy the sickspeed louvers from their website for $399.88 with free shipping, then I found them on eBay for $249.67 shipped from Yakima, WA.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/REAR-WINDOW....c100009.m1982

Just goes to show that the markup from the manufacturer is a lot.

Reviews from the eBay sale are all positive. Going to order them now. Will post back up when I receive them and install them.

Yeah any of the mass produced parts from China always go down after they make so many of them. Lips/trunk wings for these cars are <$100 now. Im sure these will be ~$100 by next spring

I was behind a black BRZ with those luvers and took a picture under braking.

So both you and the black BRZ had your headlights off, and their L/R brake lights are out too?

I'm back at looking at louvers again, because, well, I still really want some. I came across these on eBay. Can't decide if I like them or not but its an interesting twist.

Thoughts?
