front of the JDM visors where it meets the corner triangle thing on the front doors look much better than the AVS ones do.

loving the lexus logo on the visors. still not worth $400 though.

I found used JDM visors on eBay for half the price (the seller was ironically in the same state as me). They are such great quality, though I don't think it's enough to give it the $400 price tag for a brand new set.

JDMs are a lot better. The AVS ones look good new but they warp as they get older. They are flexible and warp with the heat. I couldn't stand the way they warped, particularly on the front windows. The JDM ones have a metal strip in them to prevent this.

Like I posted on the previous visor post, I've had both and I sold my AVS ones to get some JDM ones. I love the JDM ones! No regrets.

JDM FTW, I had the AVS and they warp so badly to cause rattling again my rear windows while driving
