Veryyyy carefully as to not crack them..use 3M Adhesive Removal Spray..you can find it at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, anywhere..just don't get too much on your weather seals for the door.

i dont have an IS yet but this is how i removed JDM visors on my 06 RSX-S...

i pulled the visor back, section by section while running a long razorblade where the double sided tape is, (while pulling the visor back, its going to expose the tape, make sure the tape is stretching while pulling the visor back)... cutting into it releasing the visor from the door... just make sure the clip in the section ur pulling back is released from the window to prevent them from bending

once the visor is removed... ur going to have excess double sided tape sitting on the plastic section of the door... i let it sit in the sun before pulling it off... it softens up the stickyness, making it easy to pull off... the longer u leave the excess tape on, the harder it will be to remove it... hope this helps
