Thumbs up AVS Seamless Ventvisor - closest thing to JDM window visors??

a lot of people are not willing to part with ~$300 for 4 pieces for plastic for their windows. and it seems to me that people have only seen 2 alternate routes for these, which is weathertech and ebay..

so i did a little research on some window visors and came across this..
http://www.lundinternational.com/lun...ventvisor.aspx
could this possibly be the closest thing to the JDM visors??


i also saw some other ones, but didn't really look into it

but the main focus is the top link! now i couldn't find any pricing on them, but i couldn't imagine that they would be anywhere close to the JDM ones. has put them on their car?? if anyone has them, post up some pictures, i would like to see their fitment, pricing, etc, etc.








they have it available for our car:

Wow the AVS ones look super close to the oem ones. I got some so called JDM ones off the net and they did not look anywhere close to the top link picture. Looks very promising....who gonna take one for the team????

Or go with the weathertech like me... easy to install, no 3m type is required and also you can take them off whenever you want withg out any problem

They do not cover the chrome thing. they just go inside the door panal. they are very easy to take off . just plug and play type a thing.

I saw a set being sold on ebay the other day...I think it was about $150-ish.

IIRC, it was a generic picture, not a 2IS specific pic.

I'd be willing to be the guinea pig if it didn't have the chrome part.

Its a lot nicer with the chrome trim, just like the JDM ones. It would look retarded without it.
