I bought the IKONs which are the subject of recent posts in this thread, not really that complicated?
Take a look at the group buy page to see all of the problems people are documenting, that's fantastic that only one of them has popped up for you so far but there are many. |

maybe, you have to get a quote for shipping which one person would receive and then ship to the others unless all three lived near each other. It looks to me like the louvers that sickspeed is selling. My takeaway from this is that at some point these will be available in the states and for a cheaper price. |

I just did a search for louvers on ebay and it looks like you can now buy ikon louvers there.

Looks like a better design, structurally, but I don't like the massive gap at the bottom that's been created. Can't tell if there's a cutout for the brakelight or not, pictures show it without the cut out and with it. It would seem to me that they "listened" to their group buys and changed the design a bit to reduce shipping damage and prevent some of the floppiness of the louvers at the middle. They could have just made a thicker model, but I guess this new design works too. That bar down the middle isn't appealing. |

TRD...
Of course, to each his own... I prefer TRD, but completely understand the pricing issues... Just my .02 cents...

I just ordered one today.
SickSpeed has a 25% off Black Friday code "SS25" on their YouTube channel. Plus they have free ground shipping within the lower 48 States. Cheers, Ken
