Yes, yes, yes! Looks awesome!

Well, ideally I'd want them radiused to match the profile of the top frame of the windshield. These, however look just so much cleaner - I bet they look great installed!

Howja do it?

They are the original visors from my 78. Sent them out to Vinyl Specialties in NY...ten days and $65 later, they are ready to go back on the car.

I've spoken to them also, great looking visors. Just wish they could keep the mirrors, but then I could look at my ugle mug. Guess no mirrors is best!

I don't think I'll miss having the mirror...the rear-view one is only a short lean away. It really seems to improve my interior....should have done it years ago.

They did my visors, too. Only problem was they didn't get the curve correct, but I'll live with it for the improvement in the looks dept. Very nice work!

Those now look like a pair of visors out of a 71 Chevelle.
