they are mainly jdm trends. lol. but im sure you can probably find someone that is willing to custom make visors for you.. i doubt people have them premade. and if they are premade, its crap quality.

I've actually seen one member on here post pics of their Solara with them on. Let me click around a bit...

EDIT: Found it

Fernando, I think you and BLACK V6 could pull these off (being that your cars are black). However, us lighter colored Solaras, maybe not so much.

I remember when those first came out. I could not wait to get some for another car I owned....a sedan. They are great for keeping the rain out when you want to vent the windows a bit, but they also give you less room to stick your head out on the occasion that you might want to do that. They also cut out some visability of things just above you where you might want to look. Take for instance someone is standing beside your car talking to you while you are sitting behind the wheel. I found those instances just a bit annoying. I think the Gen2 Solara's already have slightly less window height that a lot of other cars. Finally, I think they look better on sedans than on coupes. It always looked funny to me to see them only over the front windows and nothing over the back windows. Even though the back windows don't open and they are not needed, visually speaking, it is not so pleasing to me. I saw a really nice red Monte Carlo last night that had some black ones, however, that looked pretty good, and that is a coupe. Once again, it's always a matter of personal preference. I would not do anything to my car based on how somebody else thinks it looks if I'm not 100% for it myself. Jimmm

I think a window visor setup would look good on a dark colored car too. Just remember to roll down your windows a little bit if you want to open your door. Then again if they're the kind of visors that jut out a bit more rather than curve downwards you might be able to get away with it.
