I like the color match a lot better than another black part on my jeep. Starting to get to much black and look like a cholo.

Water in the ****

But the engine itself is well weatherproofed from the factory, so whatever rain water trickles through the louvers doesn't hurt anything. Just make sure that if you do any extra mods under the hood, such as adding wiring for lights and such, that its all weatherproofed with good automotive connectors.

I have an **** installed that is far from waterproof. Have you heard of any issues from owners of JK's with ****s?

I went with a TJ louver on my JK .. I liked the louver style better .. and seeing the body color all the way around looks good.

I do recommend that anyone who wants to use use a TJ louver on a JK use Blind Rivits to attach it instead of bolts .. there are many areas underneath the JK hood that need to be drilled to get to the TJ bolt locations. Yes .. I did install without removing hood.
