Re: SMASHED LOUVER
Oh dear Mark, I'm really really sorry ... Vandalism is one of the most under-punished (don't know if that's the right word?) crimes in my opinion ...
My daily GLi has a long key-scratch all the way along the side, made way back some time in 2004 but it still makes me angry every time I look at it.

Oh dear, that's a real shame. People can be so callous.
Why don't you post a few pictures of your car post-louver - I'm sure it still looks great.

Re: SMASHED LOUVER
Oh man...that's nasty. It's that kinda thing which keeps the really, really rare stuff tucked away in the house and not left outside. 
I don't mean to sound like a vulture...but are the fitting clips still there, and would you be willing to part with them?
cheers

Re: SMASHED LOUVER
That picture has been used muchly this week dude 
Do you still have the bits Mark? I'm horribly tempted to say I'd give moulding one a go, but at my rate of project progression nothing much would be seen until all 300's have rusted to the ground. Seems a shame to just throw them though

Re: SMASHED LOUVER
I would be willing to have a mold made of mine...but...they're very, very weak, so we'd have to be careful. A reproduction in fibreglass would be no weaker.
I could wax the crap out of it, then start doing it in sections...
cheers

Re: SMASHED LOUVER
there are 3 different types of louvres (saloon, mk3hatch, mk1/2hatch), i don't know if you allready had this in mind but it is worth checking before reproduction 
and it's a pain in the ass part to reproduce too actually
