the C4 versions are harder to find because they made fewer of them. The last C3 ones I saw on ebay all went between $200-$300

Thanks for the info!

the aluminum one piece one that redson has for sale is more rare than you would think, I'll bet real money you wont find one for 2-300 bucks.

good luck finding one, I did a search for the past two days and there are none available for C3 corvettes, that means his aluminum one piece may be worth more than he realizes and he will be able to cover his medical issue with its sale.. He could probably put it on that fleabay site and get a better indication of its true worth, hope this helps.....him

Thats OK,thanks! Its a few issues.Not sure if I should spout off about all the medical here,though
Like I mentioned,& maybe I shouldnt have cuz it got so much interest stirred up,that Id rather keep that 1-piece,but I will let you all know when I do sell it. I just have to weigh what options I still have,which arent much.To spout off about the other stuff though...my mothers house,which I had to quit work to live in because she required 24/7 care,I lived in for 4 yrs,w/o any help from relatives,spent all my savings surviving.I cant sell because I cant afford court to put it in my name,so Im packing everything up to rent it out.Shes passed from Alzhiemers around this time last year. Have to to afford the mortgage pymt,& property tax I inherited. Not including my own bills,& health costs. Sure is an eye opener!

on the set for my Camaro I just sprayed them with a can of trim paint, the same stuff you would use for your rear window trim, and they looked brand new.

To redson...that louver will come apart so you can use a smaller box to ship it in. I bought one just like it a while back thinking it was 1 piece from a member here for $75 shipped. Imagine my suprise when it arived in a much smaller box! I bought a can of black trim paint from autozone and the louver looks great. Be advised that you will need the mounting brackets to mount it with, that's the hard part to find. Below is a pic of the louvers I bought, painted and installed on my car.

They don't show up every two days, but they do show up.
A member here had brand new mounting kits for sale, i think he sole both of them though. Mr. Gasket makes the mounting kits for them.

And do it because of his story and your butting in to my thread with your 2 cents , IF YA got 2 cents to add well pony up some real money.


a mod should BAN you for sticking your nose in my thread.
For some reason,diehrd,U sent me an email in response to mine telling you the 3 piece louvers I was selling for $175 BEFORE PACKAGING + SHIPPING, was really a request for $300.00! I dont see with around $20-25 in packaging,+ whatever shipping to where U are would be close to $300,but I guess U know better than I do? I also mentioned that IF I sell the 1-piece,it would be more,but that Im not ready to sell it until I absolutely have to,at a later time

Wow! Dont know why I didnt notice,but I thought my Cragar was ALL aluminum,never noticed the "sides" were ABS. Never considered taking it apart to ship it,but I hadnt planned on it as yet anyhow.What'd U say you bought it for,how long ago?Only had mine about 1.5 yrs. I call it a 1 piece because it doesnt have seperate side peices,& the whole thing lifts up
