My NHBP FA5 w/ Mugen Visors and 30% Tint

garrnew · 03-30-2008, 02:24 PM

I'm finally posting some pics on here. I put on the visors about three weeks ago and got the tint done two weeks ago. I painted the calipers black and debadged it right after I bought it. I washed and waxed yesterday her yesterday so enjoy...

Very nice car! Want to do same thing also but I'm considering 20% tint all-around.

Yeah, I wish I went darker too. PA's iffy and I travel a lot for work so I didn't want to push my luck too far. Glad you guys like.

Yeah, I know what you mean. CA is just the same, but hopefully I can get by with it. BTW, where did you purchase your mugen visors? And did you have any problems with the install (i know its been cold lately and people recommend that you install when its warmer)

Check out the title.

Haha, they're the real deal. I got 'em from King Motorsports. It was probably too cold when I put them on but no problems so far. The install was pretty easy once I figured out what I was supposed to do. The most important thing is to make sure the clips will line up to the holes before you take of the adhesive backing. The glue is pretty forgiving though.

I never really understood the point of the window visors. Is it mostly used by smokers or for the looks?

It's a black exterior/interior car so it gets hot as hell in the summer. I don't have windows in my office so I can't tell if it's raining so I couldn't leave the windows cracked. Now, I can. Plus, I like fresh air rain or shine when I'm driving. I also like the looks of these. These claim to "dramatically" reduce wind noise which I can't argue with.
