Has anyone seen any 1st Gen gill style louvers made for the 5 Gen? Think I would like this better than the stickers.

+1 - I'm still looking for these as well...

Those should be pretty easy to make.

Unsure if the '69 restoration part would fit well on our 2010's - http://www.ss396.com/mm5/merchant.mv...QUARTERLOUVERS

Seen a vender on eBay w/ 3D decals resembling those for the 2010. Cost 40 $1 hamburgers...

Update - I ordered these today from Ground-Up - I'll post pics and measurements on this other thread - http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39183 to get this on one thread not multiples.

Revolution Supersport is making them.

There was a Cad drawing on one of their threads in early September, and they said it would be out soon.....But When?

Found it, see post #355

tjd24 · 09-22-2009, 01:07 PM

I recall seeing that - clearly an option though not true to the '69 style...

nUcLeArEnVoY · 09-22-2009, 01:34 PM

The problem with Rev Supersport is, they have a lot of awesome products on the way, but they all seem so up in the air to me. I wish we'd get some sort of estimated release date or something.

Ground-up called me and said the restoration '69 Louvers will not work for us - the size and angle aren't similar to the gills we have stamped in our quarter panels.

It was great that they called me rather than just sending the order...

So we're still in need of a solutions.

These would also look great if they were painted to match the color of the car.

Thanks for the update. I'd love to get something like this put on my car.

Maybe even carbon fiber is an option?
