Car looks great with them (or without them)! Any added wind noise at 50MPH and up?

Wow, the first time I saw this thread I thought the "Window Rain Deflector" was the Capt. America shield. I thought it was funny.

I totally missed the actual rain deflectors...

WOW! on your F-Sport (black wheels and mirror caps) the reflectors really look like they belong!

First pic is 2025 450+ w/o vent visors ..... 2nd pic is with visors installed.
These are tape on vent visors with chrome trim accents to match the Lexus door trim. (50 bucks at Amazon) Yes there is a hint of wind noise (windows up) after the installation, but I drive with the windows cracked or down, (sun roof open) so a non issue for me. Installation was straight forward, prep surface, follow installation instructions. So far, carwash proof. I went with tape on visors due to poor luck with in-channel versions on other vehicles.

I can't speak to the Lexus as I used tape on visors ...... The in channel visors I installed on my 2020 Highlander did begin to "scuff" the front window tint across the upper glass where it went into the channel with the visor ...... my guess was; because there is such close tolerance between the glass and window channel. It did take about 3 months before I noticed the scuffing and the tint installer confirmed. Since he had installed tint for me on a number of cars, he replaced the tint on the drivers window after I replaced the visors with tape on. The in channel, Auto Vent Shade visors worked "loose" after about a year on my Tacoma, the adhesive no longer held the visor securely in the channel. I replaced them with tape on's. It might just be me, and bad luck with in channel visiors.......... Ps on the Tacoma, the window motor felt "resistance" when the glass contacted the visor - subtle but you could hear it
