Louvres make women want you more.
And make men want to be you.


Like Moustaches.

If you have the fitting kit then it should be fine. I didn't have one for mine. 3M double side Velcro tape kept it on at over a tonne though. :lol:

You saying you wanna paint the louvre? Thought it was brand new.

You gonna tell us how much you got it for? :P

Whats wrong with the actual Louvre mounting kit dude?

Liams always held on some velcro. And im sure he is a man born with spirited driving in his right foot DNA.

*edit. He beat me to it.

Boom! :lol:

BTW Attack, I never liked mine at first. Was massively gutted. We all know wheels make the car, but together with a wipe of Linseed oil on a louvre, they fucking transform it. 8)

Well it doesnt actually say brand new, it just says like new, but its all good, its just got the tinted old plastic black colour, i was just gonna satin black it tis all, but not 100% yet, i'll try it first :D

I offered him 150 for it, but he wanted me to stretch to 180, so thats what i got it for :) It was only up the road from me though, took about 45 minutes to get there, about 3 hours to get back as the bottom end of my brothers Fiat Tipo blew up on the motorway :( So had to wait for a tow...

Its got all the original fittings, maybe i'll put some velcro on it too, just to make sure :) haha

**Aha i know what you mean, i laid it on the back of the car, it looks cool, but crap at the same time :lol: I've got some 8x13 Compomotives to go on with coilies etc so once it's all on it should look uber cool, yeah, i said uber :P haha

They're Johns fella! I just had a lend of them for a bit.

I wonder where Attack has gone. Fondling his new and expensive piece of fragile 80's tat I reckon. :lol: 8)

[EDIT] He's back. Damn that's expensive! As you know though, you won't get one anywhere else! That's what I went to on a brand new one once and was outbid at the death.

When they look a bit tired, or the car isn't at it's best they look shite imo. When the car is looking good though then I fucking love them.

8x13 Comps make me :D It will all come together then!

I'll stand by Linseed Oil mind dude.

Its very good on plastics. And has no flaking in the longrun like paint.

No primer.

Everyones a winner.


* Edit... HHHHHOOOOOOOW MUCH!!!!! , yeah, youll probably not see one cheaper for a few years.
And theres few people rocking them in the UK.

Fuckm cheaper than HIGHLY rare rimz innit bruv?
