Door Visor, than tint install question

Having the door visors installed on my 2018 fit, how difficult would it be for the installer in putting in tinting after ?
Installers normally place the tinting on the outside first to measure and cut the appropriate size before placing the tint on the inside, and I don’t know if the door visor will hinder the Measurements process. Anyone done so ?

Thank you

You could call an installer and ask.
Or you could postpone the visor installation until after the tinting.

I'm sure a qualified experienced tint installer could tell you their recommendation, it can't be the first time it has happened.
How much of a hindrance it might be? I don't know. If there is any doubt? Postpone the visor installation.

Yeah, I’ll just call the installer and ask him if they’ve had this before. Thank you.

Edit: Called tint install company and they indicated that there will be no problem.

yah, call your tint guy to be for sure. in my case, my tint guy has a large piece of plexiglass or something on a large work stand where he does his preliminary cuts and stuff so he wouldnt have an issues with your car. he has a lot of tools he made as well to get around different obstacles so i always go to my guy. he'll think of something and i get to watch from like 10ft away if i desired.
