Yup. Common problem. The adhesive Saleen used is unflexible and if the car was outside and it got cold fast causing the cracks.
i thought i bought a pair a few years ago but ended up getting 2 drivers side. i have been unsucessful in finding just a passengerside but if anyone wants my extra driver side i will send it to you.

Very common, and in some cases it will crack at the same spot but on the top side too. My passenger is cracked on the top and bottom.

cracks
just found 2 more cracks in the louvers. has anyone just removed them and left them off. seen pics of 2008 with them off, did saleen build them that way? like the looks of the louvers but if they are going to crack again, not going to waste the time and money on them. does 281 motorsports still make them in CF, if they do anyone have some feedback on them?

Mine are both cracked top and bottom. Are they just glued on? No taking out the window to replace?

Use extreme caution when removing as the urethane used to install them was "gobbed" in there and can take your paint when you lift. We have a razor technique I can explain to you if you want to call me.
