What did you change? Guess it would be more of a thread if you talked about the update...

Why didn't you just add this to a build thread or the post a picture of your car thread?

I'm all for the Weathertechs (which is why I have them)...why?

My thoughts on JDM visors:
They're stick on so easily stolen
The "seamless" look abruptly ends part way into the rear quarter window
The stick on design makes the pillars look weird because now its not a smooth pillar but stepped because of the stick on top design
$400 a set

My thoughts on Weathertechs:
In channel design
The profile is slim and not sticking out like crazy like other visors
The in channel design doesn't mess with the original body/door/window lines
Only $100 a whole set
