Subject: Broken Louver- I almost cried  


I had a crack in my rear louver and I thought I had corrected it  with 
some 2 part epoxy a few months ago.  Yesterday I went to close  the rear 
louver and I gently pushed down with both hands and "SNAP" the  whole 
thing broke completely in half and I stood there with half of the  
louvers in my shaking hands.  Has anyone ever repaired this type of  
break?  I'm gonna try a body shop on Monday to see if they can fix  it.  
Please let me know if I am wasting my time on fixing it or  should I 
just bite the bullet and buy a new one?  This would happen  to me just 
weeks before leaving for the DCS.  Any words of wisdom  would be 
welcomed.

Cups (or anyone else in need of a Sunshade/Louver -
 
I put on a brand new set recently at DMC Florida and I still have the old  
one here, haven't bothered yet to re-list it on e-bay after it failed to sell a  
few months ago.  Picked up some minor damage during Hurricane Wilma last  
year.  Has one large visible crack on one underside central support rib,  and 
several near-invisible hairline cracks on adjacent support ribs, all easily  
repairable.  I'd take $200 plus shipping costs for it rather than bother  with 
e-bay again, and if you're local to South Florida, you could even come pick  it 
up yourself to save on shipping costs.  Anyone who's interested, let me  know.  
By the way, the damage is small enough that you could put it right  onto the 
car now, drive it to DCS, and fix the cracks for good whenever you are  able.  
I'll be leaving soon to drive north for DCS myself soon, so if you  want it 
before the show, get with me right away.
