Rear Window Louvers: Any issues with the tape?

[Jeepngli]

Hope this is the right section for this.

I've always loved rear louvers on muscle cars. I'm very close to getting one, but I'm just so unsure about the louver being held on only by tape. I need some confidence so if you have any comments(both negative and positive) please share. I just don't want to take a chance and have the louver fly off when I'm on the highway. Has that happened to anyone? Has anyone removed them? If so, did the tape/glue come off eventually or did it make a total mess? Thanks guys.

i had my Roush louvers on and have been to 120+mph multiple times never a problem .......i'll put it to you this way put a small piece on , leave it there for 2 days in the heat then try to get that shit off you will never question it's strength again

Have the roush louvers also and never had a problem. I let the tape set for about a day and a half before i reattached the louvers.

Never had a problem in about a year.

I've been up over 150mph and they have stayed put.

Thanks guys. Just needed to hear some non-vendor remarks about the tape.

being you have a racecraft and not an actual "s" series car...i've had 3...

THe entire f'n body kit/wing is all 3m tape...saleen owners know from experience since the entire car is held together with that crap LOL

I'm confused by your comment. You've had three Saleens or 3 window louvers?

I won't bash Saleen, I'm happy with my Racecraft. With that said, I prefer not having all the body kits. Thats why I went with the Racecraft.

sorry for the confusion...i've had 3 saleens...all held together with 3m tape...its freakin strong...just make sure all the surfaces are super clean and you'll never worry...hope that clarifies

haha, I completely took your comment out of context. Thanks for clarifying!

I put mine on waited about one hour and then mounted louvers and have not had a problem! +1 for Roush

Cool. I'm thinking the Saleen PJ Louvers. I know they're expensive, but I like keeping things Saleen(or at least not Roush, no offense). I like this one b/c I have that same spoiler. The spoiler is a flat/matte black painted. I want it to match up. Anyone else know of window louvers with that finish? Thanks again!
