Good? Bad? Useful? Useless?

Completely unattractive.

Not as awful as the Puffy Lumpers or the Toupee, but a close third.

Any man or woman that were to disgrace this magnificent car with those things does not really deserve to be driving it. Just my opinion of course.

on my old Jeep Grand Cherokee they looked good but on the TL and MDX they don't look right.

They are useful but one can live without them.

Only the one on the driver's door is actually useful.

The TL is an unusual vehicle. It is designed so well that it looks best without anything added to it. I recently ordered an 05 and had to restrain myself, so as to not scew up the lines.

Strange you all think they look ugly. I have them on my white TL with dark windows, and they look great, but thats not just my opinion, several others have also commented on them, making the car look more sporty.

Personally, I put them on so i can crack the windows open a bit without anyone knowing they are down. Helps keep the car a bit cooler here in Southern CA.

I saw them on a SSM car the night I was going to buy mine and thought they looked awful.
But heh, to each his/her own.

To each his own. Satisfy yourself and not worry about what others think. It's your car.

If you like em (or have a need for them), get them. I got the puffy lumpers (BSM) even though many people claimed it took away from the clean look of the car.

I never imagined that people bought these for looks, but solely for their function. Thank you for setting me straight....

Fresh air in the rain? That's typically some of the most humid air there is. I'll take the A/C and keep the windows closed thanks.

Thought about them because I smoke with window open which is impossible with TL in rain unless you wear a raincoat. Then saw them on a TL, I'd rather suffer a nicotine fit than do that to my TL. UGLY and expensive.

Sorry to disagree, I personally think it makes the car clean. I just don't feel like paying 2bills.

I LOVE mine... I believe they will look best on NBP and WDP...

They are actually making my WDP TL-S look narrower and sportier, plus I can actually open a window when it's raining/snowing...or just crack it open a bit to prevent wind noise...

BUT, the weathertech ones do provide a better protection, but JDM actually follows a sleek body curve.

PS I'm a smoker...can't live without visors.

I like door visors too but I always thought they made it look wider and more of a VIP look. Might get em in the next few months

their function is appealing if you're a smoker, but not really for me. They look odd.
