Default S60 Rear Window Louvers

Has anybody ever seen back window louvers on an S60? Sorta like this, but with thinner/more slats.

http://media.photobucket.com/image/m...7/STANG501.jpg

I'd like to buy a set but haven't been able to find them on the internet.. If not, I'm gonna fabricate some. Obviously I won't have them on the sides.

Thanks,
Zach

Im not sure if those would look good on an S60...but to each his or her own. I have only seen the small air dam or small visors that go on theback windows. Good LUCK THOUGH!

I did one too, see it below.. only problem is the louvers I used for the image are MUCH larger than the ones I'll fabricate (they're also grainy :P ).. so my slats will be much slimmer.

Note: I rendered this up in 5 minutes by copying the louvers off an old Pontiac.



I believe that if the perfect balance is found, it'd look pretty good..

I will surely post pictures when I'm done. Although it will most likely take months due to my limited access to a plasma cutter and desire to sand/paint the thing properly..
