JDM Rain Visors

Just got them installed a bit ago. Pretty happy with them so far. Waited five and a half months for these things. It was only supposed to be a 6 week wait. Very subtle. Love them. I just posted a how to. Let me know if there are any errors. Not posting pictures here since it's a waste bandwidth IMO.

Any noise reduction when the windows are slightly open?

It is subtle but it does give it that something extra.

My only complaint is that it actually increases noise when the windows are close. I don't notice any additional while the windows are cracked, no a reduction really. I'll try to pay more attention. But when the windows are closed, you hear a "wind leak" like noise. I can barely hear it over my exhaust, but if you had a quieter car, it could get on your nerves. And I DID install them properly and was very careful considering it took my ~90 minutes to install. Took my time though, and was busy taking pictures and documenting.

My friends just made fun of me since they're pretty tiny compared to their rain visors. The penalties of frameless doors. It's too cold for rain now (thanks to a 5.5 month back order), so I can't say how well they work. If they're just JDM blink, I'm okay with that because I do love how subtle they are. But that's how I am with everything on the car... except for the huge ass Perrin FMIC.

Gruppe-S. Make sure they have them in stock first, or you could be waiting a very long time.
