Thanks 
!
These cars are really pretty amazing. It doesn't much matter where you want to get, just add "paint" to that "blank canvas" until you get there! In my case, that definitely included the ventvisors. Super practical (keeps the rain out) and they integrate pretty well!

Yup, the visors are definitely a plus. I heard the rumions are not in-channel though. I heard they are like stick on adhesive or whatever. maybe double sided taped. Iono. I'd be too scared that they might fall off while cruisin' on the freeway =P

I specifically wanted the inchannel design for the xB2, but I also wanted visors for my 1990 Eclipse, and only the traditional 3M adhesive style is available. So, I installed a set and it's VERY secure. (The adhesive tape applies directly to the painted metal, though you do rough up the surface a little before installing.) I don't know how dependable 3M tape to xB black vinyl tape is, but the 3M double sided tape is iself pretty strong stuff.

these looking good but i've seen the rumions one, its seems like the quality for the rumion is better but alot more $$$. i'm still debating should i get this or the rumion style one because later i'm getting the trd cf window trim.

As there are decent lower cost products available, the price for the Rumion were higher than I wanted to go. By quality, I'm guessing you mean the acrylic is thicker, and that could surely justify a higher price ! On the other hand, greater thickness could present problems with an inchannel design. Personally, I wasn't too keen on applying the 3M tape to the vinyl tape -- not sure what life to expect with the vinyl tape as is, let alone with something stuck to it. The inchannel keeps it simple, and both thickness and finish seem respectible to me. Ultimately -- to each his/her own !
PS. The only "improvement" I'd like is if the rears didn't flex out a little towards the center, however, that springiness is probably necessary to keep them in position. The fronts have the leading edge to provide positional stability.
