Default IS side window corner louver.. Should I keep it?

Hi everyone,

I’m asking your opinion on the side corner louver, you can see it in the below pictures.

I keep it?
I paint it black?
I remove it?











This is how it looks without it..

^^ To be honest, I would not have even asked, I would have removed this ASAP

I'd also remove it. That rear window visor is nice, but not the louvers IHMO.

It's not for me. It all comes down to what you like on your car.

Take it off and save it for the mustangs!
The rest of your car is tastefully done.

I think the car looks much cleaner with the louvers off. I am liking the side skirts, roof spoiler, exhaust, etc.

Looks great without it in my opinion!
Feel like it clashes with your other mods

If you like it, leave it. If you don't, remove it. It isn't my taste, but it's not my car. So the only real opinion that matters is yours.

Alright guys It’s off! Thank you for your input!

For the other forum members, please disregard the previous comments in this thread, anyone up for buying these lovely louvers at half the price? 😂😇

^^ Thanks for the update! It is always great to have members provide continuous update on their issues or thread. And as far as the louvers, thanks for offering, I would really love to install them on mine but I'll pass for now

If you plan to make a public posting to sell it, please use the Marketplace on Club Lexus to do so rather than using a forum thread here.

Yes sure, thank you!

and thank you everyone for your input! When you’re bored with your car and start modifying things, you’ll always need someone to tell you to stop at some point so you wont end up with a ricey car.. especially when it comes to a Lexus!

It's all about the positive vibes. If the mod makes you happy, it's the right mod. But, at the same time, everyone has their views on things and can help steer you to make a choice you might not have otherwise thought of.
