The down turn is a bit to far for me, but I think you could pull it off if you make the wing longer. Maybe an 1 1/2"-2".

that looks awesome imo. definitely something people would buy.

the only input i have is maybe have the visor come out a little bit further so its more of a wing. but im really feeling the "down turn" everyones referring to. i think its just right.

hey sorry for the lack of updates. imperium- i started by making a template with masking tape of the top of my rear window. then transferred that to a piece of cardboard and cut out some different shapes to mock up. when i found the look i wanted, i used the cardboard template to trace the shape onto a 3/16 sheet of abs plastic. cut out the blank a bandsaw and mocked it up on the car. with it taped in place(centered and whatnot) i marked where the corner bends would start and end. got a large diameter piece of pvc pipe (3-4") to use as a form to make the bends and heated up the plastic where i marked it before with a heat gun. then put the heated plastic over the pipe and let it bend and cool to take the shape of the rounded corners. after that was some sanding for final fit and finishing. its held on by some 1/4 wide 3M adhesive tape. im failing at getting pics up sorry but ill see if i can get more detailed ones up this week. good luck!
