Has anybody bought these from American Muscle?

Painted Mustang Quarter Window Louvers (05-13) - AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!

They are on sale so I want to get them soon. My main question is does the paint match and how well do they stay on?

Gtzzoom · 06-01-2012, 08:54 PM

No.....(drat)...I went out for the Hot wheel style quarter louvers myself...but crap thats cheap. Dont wait...get them asap

jmeigs · 06-01-2012, 08:58 PM

I cannot believe they are that cheap. Gonna buy them asap. Maybe it is an error by AM.

Gtzzoom · 06-01-2012, 09:03 PM

Just bought them. I still cant believe they are only $89.

Gtzzoom · 06-01-2012, 09:10 PM

They do use 3M tape.

Mady · 06-01-2012, 09:14 PM

Yes all window covers go on via m3 tape you can also buy it from auto part stores as well just make sure to center it right and clean it off with alcohol wipes if it has wax on it use wax remover and then use the alcohol wipes and it will stay on just fine

Gtzzoom · 06-01-2012, 09:18 PM

yep. Just got a heads up from AM...they are backordered. I wonder why at that price...worth the wait. told them to put my order on hold until it comes in then ship it...

Yes all American muscle parts like that come with m3 tape just make sure they give you enough of it I had to ask them for more and to have them send the right amount of length for each of the piece when I did they were very good and gave me what I needed

They probably didn't have very many in your color since it is new and not many people have it yet.

Gtzzoom · 06-01-2012, 09:37 PM

too true

Mady · 06-01-2012, 09:39 PM

They do get the job done in a timely manner so expect it not to take too long

the_stig · 06-02-2012, 06:27 PM

I ordered some for me what a great deal! They already sent me a "shipped" email so i should have them late next week (canada). I promised myself no non-functional stick on stuff but these look so good and are so cheap! Plus the block some sun from getting in quarter windows :p

+1, i stroll through AM site daily, this wasnt in the on sale section this month! It took me a minute to realize these were 60 percent off. When i later noticed the popularity of this thread i ordered them before they go out of stock. Its such a good deal....a body shop would charge $100 just to paint these.

Gtzzoom · 06-03-2012, 06:09 AM

+2 on that. If hadnt seen that post...wow! Funny part.....ordered them, showed in stock. Got email 5 mins later, not in stock, and site reflected that. Next morning at part time job...showed in stock....?????
very confusing...as long as I get them before the end of June , ill be happy..

Thats because they were having a hard time matching your colour, luckily kermit the frog stopped in to their HQ to buy some headers.

Gtzzoom · 06-03-2012, 06:37 AM

Its just 3m tape, so a fishing line and heat gun should do it. Do you have "Goo Gone" in europe? Its great for removing adhesive. I hear 3m has its own remover too but i cant find it anywhere.

ashpow24 · 06-03-2012, 06:48 AM

im sure i can find some german knock off off goo gone! plus theres a shop out here i go to work on my cars with so im sure they would have anything i needed. when i ship her ill have to take them off then put em back on when i get to the states. was trying to decided if i just hang onto them and wait

ashpow24 · 06-03-2012, 07:01 AM

I had my civic totalled by a drunk driver. kept him as a fixer upper. and bought a little pos to get me around finally got tired of not having a reliable car.

Did you ship your car overseas? Or did you find one there in Germany? Oh, and props to you rolling in American Iron over in Germany, your car must get a lot of attention.

ashpow24 · 06-03-2012, 11:10 AM

i bought one over here, they have a program where you can buy American cars. and thanks indeed she does!

I bought a set of them, absolutely love them, so easy to throw on. Took me a whopping 40 mins (had to make sure they were absolutely perfect). I would also recommend you look up quarter window inside covers. The opening allow water and soap to get in when u wash them and the view from the inside isn't very appealing.
