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) |

Looks like we are about 10 at this point and may pick up a straggler or two.
So we prefer to have the cores cut open and gutted. All we need is the wire cores. We then clean up the substructure and build the new ones. The only issue we have ever had with cores are the screw clamps. This is why we ask you to strip them down. Occasionally, the metal is pulled through from over tightening. We will rebuild your cores and return to you. Also, ONLY for those that participate in the rebuild we will offer the new visor clips. These are the new ones we make that are polished stainless steel. You will notice that when you remove these the pins will be rusty where they pivot on the pin. This is because the factory ones were plated steel and the scratch the chrome off to review the steel underneath. Of course they will rust. Mine will not. They are also made without the hollow the factory ones have as it actually creates a weak spot if we did them that way, so we spent the extra .02 in material and solved that issue. They are $59 a set with this GB. This is a substantial savings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |
