Default Window Visors search

I don't see many members here with the window visors, but I'm looking for some and can't seem to find any nice ones. I want the ones that are slim and low profile that I think are OEM but like $400-500 bucks, not willing to spend that at all lol. If I could find some nice low profile and thin ones I'm willing to spend $250ish. Anyone have any luck with what they've bought and liked or seen? (I think Alex with the Pink, now red GS widebody has them and like 1 other member).

I'm waiting on these to come in the mail as we speak. I had Weathertech but didn't like how bulky and big they were. I'm trying these until I decide whether or not I want to spend the money on the JDM ones.

I have had these visors for about 3 months and they are probably the only choice that looked good enough.
I got these from Amazon. Fitment was about 90 percent, I had some issues with the tabs on the front driver side that hold the front end but got it to work.

Hey guys, I don't want to come off as being ignorant, but I just wanted to ask what is the benefit of window visors? Is it just strictly aesthetics? So you can kind of roll down your window without rain getting in? I'm a bit confused

The visors will create unnecessary turbulence on the side of the car. If your windows are tinted you can barley see through the visor, cuts your field of view. We also have an great climate control, use it. Also don't put on some knockoff visors, might as well tape a bag of rice to the window

I'm sure the importance of them vary from person to person. For me me, it's part aesthetics (with the right visors), plus I like to crack the windows all the time (even when it's raining), and unfortunately I am a smoker for now so it definitely helps when it's raining and you don't want to get wet while smoking haha. I had WeatherTech visors on for a while but I didn't like the look (too bulky) so I took them off. Crazy thing is that I now miss the functionality of the visors FOR ME so I ordered the WELL ones since they look more sleek and similar to the JDM. Right now I didn't want to spend $400+ for JDM visors so I am giviing these a shot at $60. This is my last attempt at non-JDM visors though, if these don't work out then I'll either go without or cough up the JDM money. Just my $0.02...

You definitely make good points haha. As for field of view, for me it's not that bad...the factory rear automatic sunshade alters my view more than window visors do lol. As for them being knockoff, it's no different then ones who put on knockoff front lips and spoilers tbh, or even replica wheels...not that big of a deal. It's all about preference and most of what we all do to a 4th Gen GS could be considered ricey since there's not too much we can do that enhances performance, so that's subjective. That "tape a bag of rice to the window" comment was funny though lol...you got me with that one!
