How much would you figure a set of nos louvers are worth with all hardware?

I'm gonna say $750ish for FACTORY NOS rear window louvers with hardware


I know 2 people who have paid $500 for used factory louvers, and then had to have them restored at a body shop on top of it

Re: louvers

I just bought a DE1 set from a 91 RS with brackets for $275. Weren't they a $400 option new? I felt like I was stealing them. But it was an old guy repainting it and putting chrome staggered Crager SS’s “to make it look like a muscle car". He said he hated the look of the louvers.
To each his own. All I had to do was put a coat of satin black on them. Though after putting them on, I have to say that having the factory brackets is key. Without them, I would not give someone full price. They are really bespoke.

Re: louvers

They were a $210 option when new. You got these for a good price.
