Ebay one is expensive n further leaking as U say,since bro teerex has no problem with his,better go 4 his type,lets gather 5 interested members first b4 V decide,ok?


You got it wrongly. The one bought by Bro Teerex is leaking and one of his already fly away when we speeding to PG TT. Yes, this is cheaper and looks more prominent than the Ebay one but if we can save on shipment cost, the difference is not much.

I have emailed the Ebay Seller to see if we can work out a deal for Group Buy, will post back here when I got more details.

No, it is because of the shape of the Visor with a sharp cut at the end near wide mirror. So when you open slight window during raining, water will get in from there.

1. Bro Teerex Visor


2. Bro Spacebar Visor


I have to adjust the light exposure of the photo for the visor to be visible. You noticed the difference in the area in red circle? This is where will have water leaking in when you open slight window during rain.

Hi Bro,
If the visor is too large it will naturally create turbulent air flow, but as for mine it is OK maybe due to the areodynamics of the design, is not creating any hissing or whistling noises. Only occasional gust of strong winds from the side will create some windy sound. As for the water drips at the arrrowed spot, the sharp edge design leaves a gap between the visor and the side mirror thereby allowing water to drip in esp while stationary. Furthermore, the availability of visor for Rex is a question mark.

The ultimate measure of man is not what he stands for in moments of comfort or convenience, but where he stands at times of challenges and controversy.

It will not work, coz cut the front end would mean pushing forward, it would then not follow the contour of the Door frame.

There are 2 more accessories supplier to accessory shops like Abang shop but both of their Visor seems to have the same shape at the front too. You can check them out below.

1. This is more similar from eBay one, can Bro Spacebar confirm?


2. This looks more Ah Beng... hahahah
