S30 Aluminum hatch louvers

My 260Z came with aluminum rear hatch louvers and I dont want em. They're painted black but it's starting to flake off. They have all the brackets for mounting on them, but I dont have the screws. These are NOT the adhesive type, these attach with screws. Sure you'll have to drill holes, but they're more secure. They're in excellent condition with the exception of the flaking paint.

These will fit the 2-seater S30 (70-78) models only.

They're not very heavy but they are rather large so if you PM me your zip code I can get you a rough estimate on shipping. When I settle on a price/trade with somebody I'll get a more accurate shipping quote.

Make me an offer or if you have some S30 parts I'd be very open to trades if you have what I'm looking for.

In these pics if the edge looks wavy or deformed it's only the rubber weather stripping. It doesnt have any adhesive holding it to the louvers and so it's not on securely all the way around. Hence the wavy look. And on the picture of the backside of the louvers: down the middle it looks like something is split...that is just the center weatherstrip hanging off. It's intact, it's just also not adhesed to the center frame. A little weatherstrip adhesive is just needed to bond the weatherstriping to the louver frame. Apparently the previous owner never bothered with that step or the adhesive just broke down over time.

Louvers - yea or nea

The same louvers came with my 70 z I'm currently resorting. They are in excellent shape, but I'm torn on whether I should go back with them or not. The windows will be tinted, so I'm not sure about what purpose they will serve other than for looks.

I'm leaning toward not using them, because they hide the cool hatch vents only featured on 69 and 70 models, so I could be swayed to sell them if offered a few bucks.
