Corvette.... now with less sunvisor...
Made a custom visorless trim panel for the yellow car so I could delete the visors and have it look OEM... swapped it into the red car today. Makes for a much more open cockpit when your tall as it increases you line of sight, also makes for a more open feeling w/ the top down b/c the visors dont block any of your view of the sky.

That looks nice!
I just flip mine the other way (towards windshield) when the top is off. |

Hey Brian,
Good to see you again today. The car looked great but I didn't even notice this mod which is exactly as it should be. Kevin |

Looks good Brian, I know what you mean by the sightline being a taller guy too.
May be something I look into doing...the only thing I use my visor for is the move out of the way to unlatch the top.
