First Exterior mod done

It's small but makes a big difference in the appearance of the car IMO. And these are the knockoff Mugen ones from ebay, cost me like $35 with shipping and took about 12 days to get them.











I really like the way these look and how they add to the cars looks.

Actually it's a reflective bronze tint, that reads 27% all the way around. Current plan is to strip it and go to a smoke 15% all the way around, just being unemployed isn't speeding up the process any. I did my second exterior mod today, I created some Eyelids for my Fit, you can see them in the GE8 Eyelids thread here https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...tml#post969584 I just posted the pictures.

So I know it's an old thread, but it just got bumped, so I'm gonna ask. Where did you find Mugen-style for $35 shipped, and how are they holding up?

Ebay just like these, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/07-08-09-HONDA-FIT-JDM-4PC-VENT-SHADE-WINDOW-SUN-VISOR-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQfitsZMakeQ3aHondaQ7cModelQ3aFit QQhashZitem25613fc576QQitemZ160545359222QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTru ckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

There are two small area's I need to reapply some 3m adhesive tape but that's just because I am obsessive over my fit. They are holding up well for the price I paid.

The real Mugens have tabs that mount in the channel of the A-pillar to re-enforce and support the visor. Honestly, unless you are a DIE-HARD JDM/MUGEN person I see no need to pay upwards of $150 or more for vent visor's even Mugen ones.
