I was wondering if anyone has gotten the OEM vent visors and had them painted to match their car?? I think it would look very unique. I know it must have been done before, right??

 

ive seen it on a WDP and it looked really good, only saw it for a few seconds while driving, but from what ive seen, ide do it. Maybe someone can photoshop a pic.

 

I don't think it would look very good, but then I'm not a fan of them in the first place

 

I did it a couple times on trucks I had and unless the color match is 100% dead on they stick out like a sore dick. It might be hard to match the OEM color as the color of the shades can taint the applied color.

Don't forget the flex agent as the first time someone shits the door and does it where thier hand goes over the top of the door and pushes the vent in a bit its going to crack the paint.

 

this is the only reason why I love nbp with gutter guards... cuz they match hehehe gutter guards

 

I think it would look great on my KBP, but not sure how much it would cost, therfore if it would be worth it...

 

Bump! Still waiting to find a shop to do it. What is a reasonable price to pay to get this done? Any other opinions welcome!

 

 

No other opinions?? Help me out guys. Do you think it's a bad idea?

 

I think it would be unique and look good on KBP

 

eh. i wouldnt personally... it would end up looking awkward i think... i would only color match if it was on NBP... but they're already black... but would look cool if they were pearl

 

Well, it's official. I dropped my door visors off for paint today. I should get them back by the beginning of the week, and hopefully will put them on by next weekend. I'll post up pics when I can!

 

Sweet. I'm looking forward to seeing the final product.

 

Well, I got them painted and they look great IMO. I can't find the cord to my digital camera (damn woman put it somewhere). I will post pics in the photo gallery tonight or tomorrow...

 

and



I say hell no, I would hate to look like the 2nd pic.

 

OP, how much did you pay for your visors?

 

Ehh don't know about the color match. I saw a charger the other day with that done. Didn't look to good imo.

 

i think it would look a lot better if it was colormatched all the way down the rear windows, and maybe the door pillars, might look a little ricey though.

 

Maybe it's me, but when modding the car, the car should remain it's elegance... turning it into a rice mobile....no good...any particular mod should not scream for attention... everything should flow with the theme....

 

it looks alright in the chop. that said, there has always been something that bothers me about the one on the back doors. don't like it.
like others have said, it will look the best with NBP.

 

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but how exactly is colormatched door visors Rice? Anyway, I think it looks good.
I think it was $150 for the visors and $75 for paint...

 

i seriously think they look cheap! reminds me of something i would do when i was 16 years old. But to each their own

Here is the link to the picture thread in the Photograph gallery.

 

Exactly it's my opinion... Honestly, from the pic of my car I posted on top... tell me that my car doesn't look ricy with visors painted??

If I have SSM, and ASPEC, possible it would go... The moment Visors stand out from the rest of the car...this is what I don't like....

 

I hear ya. I don't like the look of it on the WDP, but I think it looks nice on the KBP. Did you see mine yet?

Yes I did, they look nice, but not my style... KBP is sexy as it is....stop

Why did you black out the tail lights?

 

I did the light smoke (35%). I like the look of it

 

So, when are ya gonna smoke those headlight?

 

I'm debating that now... I still gotta lower it too... Damn economy!!

 

r those jdm or weathertech visors? i think it looks good... kbp looks sick bro

 

its pretty easy to install u can deff do it yourself in ur driveway

 

The window trim on the TL is glossy black and begging you to tint the car. It blends in perfectly.

I used to love ventvisors in the 90s and my cars used to have em. That and sunroof deflectors. But now they only look right on certain cars. Luckily the Acura OEM ones are not half bad. (I almost did a set on my car but backed off. The sunroof deflector does NOT look right on the 3GTL.) But the visors look good left the way they are. See if you paint the vent visors they will create a contrast like in Tekno's pic...They won't look right at all. If the window trim was body color (like an ol skool Benz) then you could paint them. There are people on the forum who have painted them.....Nah. You want them to blend in. If you do visors make sure you do tint too.
