yeah i love my visors. those instructions are absurd tho! after installing the first one w/ instructions i did the remaining three w/o because it's so simple and straight forward.

same, i followed it for the passenger side, but they could've made it much simpler. i just dont get the point of installing the foam inserts in the back window channels; really doesn't seem like it'd make a difference whether they were there or not.

The car looks nice, I've gone back and forth on the window visors myself but I think I'll probably get them after seeing this. The carbon fiber rear window garnish would be a nice touch to go with your front and rear lip.

trust me; i really want one. but at $200 for the seibon one it's not happening any time soon. i might just color match it since i like doing things differently on my car; i kinda have an idea on what i'm gonna eventually do to the back.

i'm hesitant on mixing real cf with the 3M stuff; but i was considering just doing smaller things (rear garnish, mirrors, and some of the dash).

will do, but it isn't stock as it sits now either.
-wink 5 panel mirror
-red cf steering wheel emblem inserts
-pioneer headunit (thats slowly but surely dying)
-ryan audio front components
-infinity rear coaxials
-alpine amp
-12" ryan audio sub
-led dome light
it's mainly just the sound system. but with how money is right now i'd be surprised if i can even afford a shift knob any time soon..

updates!
-a corner of my front lip was starting to fade, and jdp replaced it! couldn't have asked any more of john; customer service and business ethic is amazing. i'm glad that they pride themselves on their work and understand the customer's point of view. he also provided an example of the hardware so i could pick up the rest from lowes. install was 1000x easier than the stupid clips.
-went to a meet last thursday, here are the pics (too bad my lip was off )







-decided to switch up the tail lights and added a redded out a little more. these pics are also with the new jdp lip! (ground was uneven so the drop looks really uneven)











random interior pic


^ i know, killed the pictures with photoshop
also did the first oil change since i bought the car with mobil 1 5w20
next up are most likely a few small things and maybe something else; not positive yet.

Hey fitted can you get a pick of how you fitted your wink in and kept the visors. Did you mount to the windshield?

i used the windshield mounting kit. just don't put it up as high as i did, or else the visors are useless because it runs into the mirror; and you can't adjust the mirror much. just put the mounting points lower and you'll be good.



hope that helps out! also, be sure you get the windshield tinted first if you're going to, or else you end up with that.
