Is $150 a good price for Louvers?

Got a chance to buy some louvers for $150, including shipping. Is this a good price? How much were they new to those that bought them?
Thanks for the help.

Hehe, I got mine in a package deal - GT-X bumper (headlamp washer jets, complete flashers, license plate bracket, trim, etc.), the louvers, a complete gas tank, and a complete rear washer setup with the hatch glass for $100. It might be a good deal if they were new.

I sold mine on eBay for $152.50 + $36.38 and I think you (mwpayne) bid on it at one point. Honestly I don't know why someone would pay that but I guess what ever makes ya happy. more money for my car

I thought it was a rip...I've offered $50, we'll see if he takes it. You guys run across some louvers, let me know, would ya?
BTW Jeremy, I did bid on yours, but got too steep.
Thanks for all the input!

Oh yeah, what exactly is the mounting hardware for those louvers? I might be able to get a set without hardware. Can you use something else to mount them?

Thanks!

The hardware that mounts them are four metal plates, 2 that hug the glass and two that slip under the hinges. It would be hard to fab up your own. I think I still might have two of the bottom ones, If I can find them you can have them.

Nimrod-Thanks. Let me know if you've got them, I'll certainly take them off your hands.

I could use the hinge things on the top of the louvers. Anyone have any?

I've got both the louvers and all the hardware, and I'd be willing to sell them, but not separate. It's designed to clear the wiper for a GSL car, though it would obviously fit a non-wiper car. If anybody is interested, e-mail me. For those of you looking, make sure the louvers are going to fit over your rear wiper, if you have one!
