They look pretty nice but the jdm ones look alot better for some reason. Still these are a lot cheaper so i might end up getting these.

Lol yea I agree that its not worth the 4x price of these weathertechs but I keep going on the fence about putting deflectors on my IS. I keep thinking does it look nice or just tacky? Idk...

Hmm these look pretty good. Anyone have anymore pics?
Considering these since my current window trims have already been wrapped for the chrome delete, and I wouldn't want to wrap them again after getting the JDM ones, which comes with new chrome. :/

Looks nice! Could you take some pic of how it looks from the front/ the back of the car? Maybe take a couple of pictures farther to see how the car looks overall with the visors? If only the weather tech logo could be removed.....

I've never owned weather tech products, but maybe it's just a sticker?

The visors finally came in! Unfortunately, the quality control isn't quite there.
These will probably be going back for a second (hopefully nicer) set

The weathertechs takes away a lot of the IS body lines.. Don't like them. But they are cheap and they work. I'll buy the OEM ones instead...

@dnasians What are your thoughts on the visors? Can really tell how it looks since you took the picture close up.

Yea,it does take away a lot of the IS body lines. The WeatherTech visors in my opinion looks alright for the price you pay. It's like $300 cheaper than the OEM ones. The only down side is that their visors tend bulges out alot which gives it that odd look, but if u think about it $400 for a set OEM visors is kind of too pricey. Unless you live in an area that tends to rain alot. For instance, if you're buying it for appearance might as well pass on it. However, it's always the "owners" decision whether they want it or not. I mean we all have different taste in how our cars look.

I don't mind paying the extra to have a better looking car...

OEM visors will have a good resale value. I'm gonna say it'll be the difference of weathertechs, because no way will I ever sell my OEM visors for 50% of the cost, like most parts you buy.
