Default Bent sun visor

Has anyone done a fix or is there some other visors that can be used vs the original bent ones?

I was thinking about trying to slip in a rod or something to hold it straight but don't think it would last long.

Thanks for any replies.

Redline goods has a cover for them for $130, not sure if they are any count but I've been planning on trying them out when I get the money to. Maybe something you can check out too.

Looks like they are having a 20% off sale too. The console cover looks like a great option also. Actually they have a number of pretty cool products.

Thanks

Glad to help, they sell some pretty grade A stuff from what I've noticed. Let me know if you get them and how they are, if you do. Would love to see them on somebody's car to decide if I should or not. But I'm sure I will 😏 lol

I replaced my sun visors when I bought the car back in November, with a pair I purchased from StockInteriors.com. They look great, they mounted easily on the factory arms, and they work perfectly.

Not the best solution, but if you need a temporary fix, I've used those strap on cd visors with a brace glued to the back. Even gluing a wooden popsicle stick etc to the cd holder will work if by "bent" you mean that crease that tends to form on the outside corner of the visors. Like I said, not the pretty, but it'll save you a few dollars until you're ready to pull the trigger.
