All these people rocking knock off INGS+ kits, but no one say's anything...

Just my thoughts....
Totally agree with you. Some many people are using NextMod Ings kit and Seibon kits. I think it's totally fine, it's all about preference and same goes for visors.

I think the letters "JDM" need to come off the thread title..

Where are all the MODs??

I am one of those people who cannot justify paying $100 per piece for a visor but around $100 for all four, I may have to go for it lol.

I thought I left this JDM visor **** behind when I stopped daily driving my Integra, but I guess even these type of cars suffer from the whole "OMG JDM" crap.

I think some members tried the AVS and it FAILED in a couple months.

He has his car parked with garage too, he said the chrome piece start to peel off and actually getting separate with the plastic.

He has it for a very short period of time.

Not sure if that's the case for others......

I used the AVS version a while ago and liked it...at that time I couldn't justify the cost of the OEM version so this was a great alternative for me...but you can see the difference between the two once you had both. I can say for the price you can't beat the AVS version...but if you can justify the cost the OEMS they do have a better fitment and look. But then again on the road and off the forums no one cares what version you have..just you and by rare chance another CL member on the road who lives here!

to the original poster...thanks for sharing. No matter how this post gets flamed you did a good service by posting any info that can benefit any member who might find it valuable!
