Thumbs down GS Window Visors STOLEN! In Cypress.. California WOK

I hate thieves.

I got these visors for my dad about 3 years ago. Now some jack *** decides to steal them.

You would think someone driving a 3rd gen GS would have money for some visors. If you guys see some genuine visors for sale that are used please think twice and LMK!!

Aw man that's homosexual that they were stolen...Where specifically in Cypress?

GS Visors don't have metal clips to secure 'em?

So let me get this straight, Visors for the GS don't have metal clippings for security?

They could have changed.. These were the first batch ever from Carson Toyota.

My dad said he was eating at a restaurant called California WOK

This is why I inscribe my initials on everything I own in very sneaky places, in case I ever think it's my product someone is selling I can meet them up, show them the initials and then just stab them in the neck w/a pen.

jk. but I really do inscribe my initials..esp. on my wheels/exhausts/ more expensive units

I wouldn't get too butt-hurt over losing a pair of oem visors...They're starting to become common and are pretty easy to come by. The only thing that'll be a pain to remove is all that sticky adhesive left behind.

that's weird... the 2IS comes with metal clips.. the op DID say they were "genuine". does that mean they're not OEM? kinda like how fifty9fifty hats that are "genuine" aren't "authentic".

a couple metal clips? how do those stop somebody from ripping it off? it'll make it harder sure, but that won't stop them.

this is the only reason why i won't spend 350 for real JDM visors.... that sucks bro, i wouldn't want to have to go thru that.
