i have the JDM ones and love them. They are far from cheap nice clips in style and never lose shape. The cheaper brands of course do look cheap but you get what you pay for.

Exactly right? Sure the JDM ones are expensive for "four pieces of plastic" but when the quality and look is better than the cheaper brands , you cand definitely see why. So yeah, i totally agree with you get what you pay for.

Nice ride bro

You also help prove my point that the visors look great on our cars.

Car has to be modified to pull these off. On a stock IS they look out of place.

So after showing him 600rr05's ride and the opinion of the forum. He now says that they are nice but that they're pointless. I guess i cant blame him though since it is kinda hard to justify spening so much on some "cheap plastic" lol. But if that "plastic" is high quality and IMO looks great and has even some slight function, then I want them
