Default RE: Dodge Challenger Aluminum Rear Window Louvers (Real Retro Look)

Hello everyone,

Thank you so much for the rapid responses from everyone. I am pleased to hear to see that you are giving me a feedback on the parts and I will make sure that production knows about your thoughts.

First of all, the rear louver is attached to the window via Stainless Steel Hardware Plates that are stuck to the window with 3M double sided tape (The best in the industry.) The Louver is removable for easy cleaning. However, the plates will remain on the glass at all the time. Overall the installation is very simple and our experience making louvers for more than 33 years demonstrates our commitment to the product and quality.

Regarding to the Side Window Louvers: The louvers are made of ABS plastic and they are installed with 3M double sided tape and it can be painted (We have our own painting facility) or we can send the part "Raw" with a ready to paint surface. I have two versions of the Side Window Louvers one is a Large Slots and a Small Slots.

*The concern about the blind spot is a valid one. However, if you already own a Challenger, you will notice that the OEM Side Window Louver does not give you extra visibility and therefore, our part is just utilizing a portion of the car that currently is not very functional. Nevertheless, I could make a report to production showing your concerns.

Moreover, the Tail Light is a three piece unit and it is made of ABS plastic. Once again, it can be painted or sent "raw" and you will use 3M double side tape and it fits right in to the current OEM Tail Light. This makes the part very easy to install.

*The part shown on the flyer was made for the SEMA show and it is an after market part. We are currently making another part that will have the same design as the one that you see on the flyer, however, the center will be cut off so the Reverse Light will be functional.

I thank you so much for your feedback since I find it extremely important to know what real Challenger enthusiast think.

P.S. I am trying to become a vendor but I contacted the "Contact Us" link and the form was returned to me. Does anyone know how to contact the moderator?

Cheers,

Sergio Castellanos

I saw these products at the SEMA show. I was not impressed with the quality of the products. The rear window louvers didn't look like they fit very good and don't look like the 70 factory ones. You need to see larger pic's, these are to small to see the details. Just my opinion...

Hello,

Thank you very much for your comments and remarks.

I have tried to publish bigger and higher resolution pictures but the page won't allow me.

The products that you saw at the SEMA show were our initial prototypes; I tried to make people aware of this as soon as they came close to our booth. Unfortunately, I did not have the chance to talk to you in person to explain this. However, I can assure you that the production parts will satisfy your expectations.

Regarding to our quality; we have been doing this for 33 years and so far so good. Nevertheless, I thank you for your comments and observations.

Sincerely,

Sergio Castellanos
