Those louvres are awesome!! I wouldn't put them on my Mini though... I've been looking for the visor that goes over the windshield...

Remove all sections that are perforated by rust & replace with new metal panels.

Did you weld the floors in? Hard to tell from the pic but I can't really see any weld marks.Yesterday 08:29 PM
I started and have welded in the right side floor and heelboard repair section where the rear subframe attaches. Need to get off my lazy butt and do the left.

Those rear louvers are a bee-YOTCH to find... The guys on the UK forums (MiniFinity, etc.) are forever searching for them and whining/begging for some adventurous manufacturer to make new sets. I bet you could sell your set for a very handsome profit, if you're planning on yanking them off - some people absolutely LOVE them it seems...
Sorry but those fugly louvers where binned soon after purchase.
