i know what you mean, common on american cars, like rear sun slats or something.

not a very easy thing to get hold of!

louvres

sounds about right to me!

i hate it when you cannot think of the right word!

yeah, i remeber clarkson bought a turbo'd mitsubishi for one of the challenges and on the top speed test his louvre fell off.

thank you people just need to find a cheep on now

You actually WANT a rear window louvre?! :shock::puke:

Mmm, there used to be a company called Richard Grant Accessories (RGA) who made all sorts of nasty spoilers, wheel arch extentions, window louvres, bonnet ducts and side skirts in the 70's, 80's and into the 90's! They were always finished in black ABS (though they could be painted) and I thought they were gash then! They were very popular at the time though.

Mind you, I've never liked bodykits or bolt on "styling" additions.

Hopefully RGA don't exist as a company anymore, at least not one producing such nasty tat.

Window louvers rock!

RGA doesn't exist anymore..

But RGM does (Richard Grant Mouldings) Halfords sell them!!!

I'm not a fan to be honest, but each to their own. shows would be boring if everyone had the same taste

Need some pictures of these guys, please!

Thanks, kinda what i was after, only a polo not a mustang lol :-p

i looked for some of these for my rocco but the only place i could find that made them for it was some yank company and they weren't the old skool ones, they were really rounded and just didn't look right at all :thumbsdown:

I like them, I'm gona go into production lol

I saw one on an astra gte on my my home from work tonight, they are sick beans them bad boys

They look cool on the right car. But on some they just look a complete mess

The ones on the deloreans are cool as hell, dunno if they're the inside or outside ones though looking at them.

It was Yoof and its on that bike engined Derby now IIRC).

that derby blades deffinitly got one and it looks bad ass!

I've got a 80's custom car mag and theres an advert for a shop selling them for mk1 polos. ill try and find it and see if theres a manufactuer to look up.

Emailed RGM and they said "We do not have any information regarding VW Polo Rear Window Louvres. I would suggest that you contact a VW Dealer or a company who specialise only in VW parts."

Helpful!
