You can crack a window while it's raining and now get wet. Or crack a window while you park during a hot day and it'll look like it's fully closed. I guess other than that, that's pretty much it. Oh and it looks pretty good ( OEM )

This exactly...both points. I used to love cracking my windows in the rain in my 2IS.....I don't in my 3IS obviously because it comes in lol. I can't wait to buy some OEM visors for this one......to me personally the only ones that look good are the OEM ones from Japan.

Good God, that OEM visor is so sexy. Still waiting for a reason to drop $500 on it though.

You get a 500 hp WHP gain! jk It's really only for looks. I rarely open my windows.
