I got the side markers and side visors in Japan. I actually like how the visors look.. I got it for around.. $250 US. I really didn't want to pay $350 plus tax/shipping or whatever they charge online. I'm a bit iffy with drilling a hole on my fender.. so I might not install the side markers.

pocky: lets meet up sometime soon, i've been out of the country til now.

I like the visors, as they're a lot more subtle than I expected.

Kensteele: My windows are tinted. The lighting makes it seem like there is no tint in the front I guess. Maybe it's because the Huper Optik C30 isn't as dark as the Madico 20 I have on the rears. Here's a better picture.. my windshield is tinted as well.



brewkp4: The air fresheners last for about and month or a bit longer. I love the smell.. if they made it in a spray.. I'd wear it as a cologne.

SanseiGS43: Yea.. lets put the suckers on soon. Have to change out that amber bulb though.

mofogasm: You have dibs on them if I do decide not to install them.

Yep with tint they look much better. I was just imagining the dark visors on a light coloured car with clear windows... would that look kinda odd?
