Default JDM style wind deflectors installed!!!

We just go these pieces in last week. They're direct replicas of the Toyota Japan JDM wind deflectors. These pieces are very durable, made of hard plastic. They are held on by 3m adhesive and is easy to install. Here's some pictures:

they are actually rain visors, not wind deflectors.

so those crazy japanese drivers can still smoke in the car when it's pouring the monsoon rain!

I'll check on the windom ones. If anything, we can get the JDM ones from Toyota Japan. (if they make it)

Thanks for the clarification on the rain visors. The way it was told to us is that i was wind deflectors, but either way, you get the point

These deflectors do not have any print. They are blank.

I couldn't tell you if they are that effective as of wind deflecting. But it does prevent the rain from coming in when you have the windows cracked.
