Quick question, What is the purpose of the window visor? Does it really help against the sun? Or is it for show because its JDM?

It's more so that you can crack open the window when it rains without getting your door drenched...much better for smoking. When it's not raining and you have the windows open a bit, there's considerably less wind that enters the car, not ruining your hairdo

Even if it didn't have ANY benefit, the looks alone, is worth the $300, IMHO.
