I'm not a big fan of the clip-on look.

can you elaborate about the clip on look? you cant even see the clips on a day to day basis unless you are looking for them.

IMO the clips were not even necessary on the WELL Visors - they more so help to align the visor so that it is less of a struggle to align and install the visor.

It looks like a stick-on, it protrudes just enough for me in the front to make it look cheapish. It has nothing to do with support clips. I prefer very sleek JDM or in-window-channel weathertech types.

got it - to be honest, as i mentioned in the original post, i was not thrilled about the use of double sided tape either for the same reason you stated - that it would look cheap. but based on the available options and pricing... these worked for me as a compromise and i was pleasantly surprised at the way they look.

NO VISOR FOR ME!

I installed on one of my vehicles so I could leave my windows cracked on a hot sunny day that I am forced to park outside.

I was was rewarded with a wasp sting in the side of the head while doing 70 on the highway.

Thanks but no thanks.

You got that right. I can remember the "metallic" sounding wings just next to my right ear and I should not have swatted it for sure. One pissed wasp for sure.

Did it ship yet? Can't wait to see them. In NYC there are like 10000000s RXs like mine driving around, I need to look different ... If I'll buy them I'll keep the price tag attached to them, rofl!!!

They have arrived and are bettter than I expected ... absolutely a work of art and not comparable to any other visor I've had in the past ... super slim and dark they look sensational .. sadly I still don't have a car to attach them to ! I'll post you pics when I do get it all together hopefully in a week or so

That was very quick shipping, can you post pics of them as is? (You don't have too as I know the feeling of keeping them 'fresh' for the car)
