There are window louvers for the 7th Gen celica. I would think Ebay may have a few but I'm not sure at the moment. However unless you're running a showcar and/or something agressive, window louvers are not going to look good on a celica. I would leave it with just the mustangs man.

Well, we all have different tastes. I personally think it would look good. But you should post a link where to find them.

Well, didn't see any on Ebay for now and I'm not sure where else to get them but I would search "celica vents" "celica louvers" etc.

This isn't a mustang forum, and even then they look like shet.
If you have ANY sense of taste whatsoever, you won't get them.

I'd personally like to see how these look.

I feel it could go either way. If done correctly it might not look too bad.

Nocoastceli, although I know you feel it would look nice believe me the rear windows serve a big purpose as far as blind spots go. If you were to get the louvers, you'll be increasing that amount by a lot. Just trying to help man.

I can't find the pics anymore but there was a user here named sexkttn that had 05-09 mustang louvers molded into a custom widebody. They still looked a little off, IMO, but it was the only time I ever saw someone try to do this mod in a more correct fashion than some ebay stick on crap.

This is the only pic I can still find up of that car and its a weird angle to try to see the louver. Maybe some of you can run some google-fu and find the pic I couldn't find anymore.

Good observation, that is exactly what it looks like

In my opinion, those were the only things I disliked about that widebody...

They serve no purpose and esthetically, they don't follow the lines of the car. :shrugs:
