Default Pic request: AVS visors

anyone have the avs vent visors? if so please post a pic. i know a lot of you have the jdm visors, but those are 3 times as much and accomplish the same exact thing.

check auto zone or advanced auto to buy. also autoventshade.com has a close up that is not of the lexus (even though that is what i searched for) but it does specify that they are low profile. i think i will order these, and if they do not suffice, they can be returned with no issue unlike JDM. just a thought...

damn, they only come in chrome. i guess they could be wrapped in black vinyl to achieve a better look. 150 bucks as opposed to 300 makes it worth it i imagine

actually, i just found out that the weather tech visors are very close to the JDM. they are 100 bucks off of their website. i can't see spending 275 to 300 dollars on a visor set just because it's 'JDM'. it's just a piece of damn plastic. lol. i'll be ordering a set of these shortly; keep you posted as to fitment. i'll post pics as well once i have everything on.


edit - avs/lund visors are not completely chrome. it is just a strip to mirror the stock trim. there is a cupon/link off of CL that gives 20% off, to the total of 111 and some change. these look to be much more seamless than the weather tech.

these look a bit larger than the JDM ones. i spoke with a salesperson at AVS, and was told that the above image is how they are designed to look. that pic may or may not be the AVS, but it shows what it is you should expect to receive if you order; the AVS come with the same chrome strip. the good thing is that you can order from the CL page to get the 20% off, and then return to advanced auto if you do not like for 50 bucks more than you paid. just say they were a gift....lol.
