Talking Vent visors


What are your thought? When it comes to F-bodys, I've only seen these on the pink+zebra+"ws6" Camaro!


Edit: I mean the use of them on F-body cars... I'm stumped as well on how they would work properly...

You're talking about putting them on an f-body?! Well assuming you can figure out how to mount them (i'm stumped on that one), they would look really out of place.

So no, absolutely not on an f-body in my opinion.

Now if you are speaking of any pickup truck or full-size SUV, then I say a definite YES. I have them on my Yukon and love them every time it rains.

Hard on an Fbody because most of us have either convertible or T tops both which can't use them.

can't really mount them. they have to be mounted to the metal on the door not the glass, and f-bodys have no metal

They do have them for hard top f-bodies only.

However... would you put visors on a ferrari... nope... tacky. Why would you not give your own car the same standards ?

Here's a pic.

I've seen them here in wichita. Yea, they are retarded looking. What would be the point anyway. It's not like you can't get tint and use the a/c!

Figures those stupid seat covers would be in there... also tacky

I work at autozone and you would be suprised the kind of vehicles people buy those for. Not only that but the random crap they buy for their cars, most of the time I try and talk them out of it if its a nice car.
