Looking at another run of visors to recover $110 a set in vinyl naked or with flap and pocket, but need 12 sets to do this. Many happy customers, and better than $300+ for a decent set of visors.
Who's interested? You will need to send in a stripped core (we can strip for $25 more), and we will recover. Shipping is not included in the cost. -Mark Attached image(s) |

Can you clarify what a "stripped core" is, like do I just unstitch or peal off the current material?

You just cut the vinyl with a sharp knife and peel off the frame. 3 minutes.

That's my car in Mikey914's post. His re-covered visors look fantastic in the car. You guys will love them.
Take off your old puffy visors, cut off all the vinyl, throw away the nasty crumbled up foam core, and just send him the wire frames. Tip: Keep the original screws used to mount the visors onto the pins. They screw into the clips on the wire frame better than replacement screws, so that you can adequately tighten the visors onto the pins. Another view of the visors (old vs new): Attached image(s) |

The $25 extra charge is because we really don't want to do it. You can't hurt anything, just take a knife and slit the edges. mark |

Very good quality. Only suggestion is to cut the top outside area lower the thick stitching makes it difficult to get the a targa latches through. Se the above old vs new pictures and how the old has more spacing.
Do not let this keep u from ordering. I was in the original buy and happy. These are good quality and worth the money! |

Camp 914, Mark Epstine, rhodyguy, Brad Mayer. The usual suspects should have a few laying around. I'll set these up to process through the site that way there will be an order. Just need a few more to open it up. Looks like it will happen, may be a few more days. Mark |
