Exterior exhaust fan shutters

We have this exhaust fan that needs a new shutter. This one is a little different than the ones I've seen; usually the ones I see are flat. This one protrudes out a bit to fit over the siding. Am I using the proper terminology for searching; shutters, or is there another term of this?

Thanks

I have never seen the louvers sold separately. You will probably have to buy a new vent and either rob parts or install the new one. Yours has built in J channel to accept vinyl siding so make sure you buy the same type. They are readily available.

A measurement would probably help us help you, but I think its larger than a dryer vent. 😉
