BRZ Resurrection Pt 24 – DIY Window Louvers Pt 1

1. gracias por el video muy bueno.

2. where can i get the materals to make my own louvers i have looked at all the stores

3. Is the angle of the bend the same angle as the rear window to the trunk lid?

4. What kind of metal? Is it like aluminum flashing for roofing? Or is it just stock steel

5. Does it have to be 54 degrees on the angle .. I’m in the process of making my 350z ones and I can’t seem to get the right angle ..

6. today the chevette/acadian louver can not be found!

7. I really wish I had supplies to do this myself. I have a scion IM and im trying to whorestep my rear side window corners, if you have any advice please help!

   Edit* scratch that, decided on a single scoop louver, but still not quite sure how to build it

8. what's the hand bend tool called?

9. whats the point of louvers

10. Had lovers on a late 70s 280 Z they were attached by slipping a hinge with a flat part above it that went under the window rubber and trim that allowed you to lift them up to wash the window And dry it too They stayed on the car very well and it had a Catch on the bottom part to hold it secured to the window That set of lovers was a factory option And they did have a foam pad Were the metal met the window They never rattled Or ever were a problem and most of the Zcars of that era had them installed As well the drywall corner bead may be a problem rusting as that is made from very cheap steel ? Ive seen them rust in buildings that have a high humidity level my advice would be To powdercoat if you can fid a oven it will dit in or maybe use a ultraviolet light cured powder coat Not a expert or a negative person on your project my gut reaction is a paint wont prevent the rust With a vehicle being exposed to our side conditions ? It would be interesting if you could do a follow up video on the final And perhaps a review at one point in te future ?

11. What did you use to cut the metal into strips evenly?

12. what are the dimensions on the metal you used? have a g35 and im trying to do louvers but dont want to pay $400

13. Awesome! I want louvers on my 2nd gen Celica but they're impossible to find these days. Can't wait for summer to try your method.

14. thanks a lot for this real DIY WINDOW LOUVERS PROJECT . . .

    I REALLY HOPE I CAN WORK SOMETHING ON MY WAGON …yea I say WAGON LOL

15. would u make me some?

16. where can you gey the louvers from?

17. R is for Rice

18. WHERE DID YOU GET THE SHEET METAL? I went to lowes and Home depot and they had nothing!!!

19. hey i wanna do this for my mustang, im thinking about using aluminum flashing and cutting it, but id much rather just buy them already @ the right widths and just cut the lengths. where did you buy your metal panels at? , also @ 9:25 into yoru video, whats that tool called?

20. Please reply! IM DYING HERE!

21. Can you please tell me where you got the metal? I've been on a search for about two weeks and nothing seems to come close to what you spent?

22. what kind of aluminum did you use or recommend ? and how wide were your panels?

23. Been trying to find some louvres for my 83 Celica… Seems like DIY would be the easiest way as they seem to be rare as hens teeth now.

24. look awesome, but i would have recommended that you started from the bottom up, that way you could overlapped each one on top of each other for aerodynamics and it wont cause road noise either!

25. where did u buy the metal from?

26. welp looks like I'm making some of these for my 02 lancer smh

27. Planning on doing this for my GT
    I rather risk $50-60 on materials for this than spend $300-400 on plastic louvers from the American Muscle website

28. 5:18 I did the same XD

29. awesome video man. Great work! i'm thinking of doing some custom ones on my M6

30. where can I find these metal strips?

31. anyone know a place to buy these pre made?

32. where did you buy the metal

33. It's nice to see that there's still people like yourself who want their car to look nice and not like a piece of shit.

34. 12:51 WTF is that red dot flying around on your wall? Aliens?
