Wild new louvers appeared - who produces them?
 
Just saw this on instagram ... any idea who makes these louvers?

They look way more aggressive than the regular louvers from TRD. Would love to know who produces them :wub:

As far as I know, the Lambo louvres were a one off for probably that car in the pic. I don't think they were mass produced.

These are part of a groupbuy on Facebook, put out by Ikon Motorsports I believe. Let me see if I can find the link.

Those louvers on a stock body would look ludicrous. I would want blacked out windows so nobody would see my shame.


Now these would look great!

I believe those are one-off custom. I like them as well. this is the TRD version. they have a hole for the brake light. without the center braces I don't know if they are practical. they also don't have any visible attachments. how do they mount and lift for cleaning.

The louvers are really growing on me. The price is a bit steep I remember my old Camaro ones were like $100 bucks. I like the TRD ones best for mostly stock body.

That shape looks like aventador on op

I like that look, would look pretty good on a wide body. I cant use a lot of the louvers I have found because the brake light cut out is on the bottom and I moved my brake light to the top.

Part of a group buy that ends on 7/31.

Here's some images on a non-widebody car:

Louvers are not practical at all no matter how you cut it. Strictly aesthetics. And these are the IKON ones. They're going for about half the price of TRD ones - but they aren't as clean in my opinion.

They mount very similar to the TRD ones - just unscrew and pop off for easy removal.

I wish someone would do groupbuy on the TRD ones at half price.

the practical part is they block the sun. the mounting I was referring to was the set that Tcoat had posted.
