Louvers/spoiler or not?

Recommended Posts

This is an opinion poll !

 

I am in the middle of restoring an original set of louvers that came with my car, the car did not have them originally so there are no holes in the body.

 

I also have the nice new spoiler from NPD to put on also.

 

The question is: should I drill 12 holes in my car to put this junk on or does it look better the way it is ?

 

I really like the plain no nonsense look as it is, just like the Boss 429 didn't have all that crap on it.

 

On the other hand, I have the items and they do look cool on the Mach 1

 

What do you guy's think? should I put them on or should I not?

Check out my other pic's in my post in the introduction sticky.

 

Cheers

can't make up my mind, John

I did have the louvers put on my car. It's a daily driver and one reason is here in Texas it gets mighty hot, and the sun bearing down on that back window will heat the car up quite a bit. Second, I like the look. Figure out if you like the look.

Since you have already added the hood tach and front spoiler I would go ahead and do it. The louvers really do help with the heat.

 

 

i agree 100%. what's a couple more holes to weld up later. i personally like the look of the louvers and spoiler especially on a restomod, now if the car was 100% original and didn't have any of the other stuff on them then i'd say leave them off.

I totally agree. If the other items were not there, I would leave the louvers and rear spoiler off since it was CJ car.

I could go either way, I like the way your car looks now and I like the items you are thinking of adding too. I wouldn't think twice about doing it if that is your only issue but you gotta do what you like, you have to look at it every day not the world.
