i found some venetian blinds out of a xf falcon wagon at the wreckers so i pick it up to modify and put in my lc.
how are these usually mounted in the back?
also i need to clean them up a bit so im going to paint them but dont know whether to go black or white.
Can people post some pictures of lc/j with white or black venetians so i can get an idea? on a yellow car?
thanks
venetian blinds suit lc/j

i was thinking of doing a telescopic mounting style to hold them in place. as the add says i you dont have to drill holes.
im going to use the xf ones (cut down) cause they were $20 and it'll be a fun little project!
also thanks for the super fast reply

How are you going to cut them neatly? Just be careful so that you don't bend them because all of the ones I've seen are really fragile, and a little bit of bending will make them rub against the glass really bad etc lol. Get photos of the process anyway

Heath my dad is a boiler maker (metal fab) by trade so shouldn't be to much of a stretch!
These ones seem pretty tough. If not I grabbed the side window venetians as
well.
