I've always wanted to visit Oz ... but I don't think it'll fit in the

<div>The best way to find out who punches louvers in your
area is to go to a local hot rod show (when we can have
them again), find the guys with louvered cars and ask who
did them. Usually it's a hot rod shop. You should know
the louvers won't look like the ones that were done on the
100M, the dies used to punch them were different than
those used in the US. Another thing to consider is the
amount of work prepping the louvers for paint takes.Â
There's a lot of hand sanding required and getting through
the process without any slashes on your fingers while
trying to keep some of your fingerprints intact is a
struggle. Also, you'll need a good painter as the paint
sometimes runs around the ends of the louvers. But if you
like the look, it's all worth it in the end.</div>
