What's with the louvre paint? I thought my louvres were faded beyond repair. They looked horrible. I sprayed them down with armor all and let it sit (didn't wipe it off right away). Now they look much better, almost like new (or maybe new? I have never seen a new louvres...) For a group that shirks painted Deloreans, it seems that the louvres get painted pretty fast.
