No offense to anyone, but Im not at all into the VIP thing. No 20 inch + wheels for me and no drop. Thats another reason why I think the visors might not look as good to me as they might stand out on a car that will otherwise be quite conservative. Its the look I dont like but the functionality I do want.

I had MacNiel WeatherTech visors on my black '04 UL. Looked great, but too many problems. They increased wind noise, and caused wear on the forward portion of the front windows to the point that I had to have the weatherstripping replaced. These were the in-channel type instead of the stick-on type. More often than not when rolling up the window the anti-pinch would activate and cause the window to go back down. Not worth the trouble on the LS.
I also have these deflectors on my F350 and Pacifica, and they are wonderful on those vehicles.

The tightness of the window in its channel activated the anti-pinch with the deflectors installed and caused the windows to go back down. That was more agravating than the noise!
