Red face Looking for aftermarket sunvisors

Hi all I am looking for some beefed up aftermarket sunvisors for my 02 Vert. The old ones are bent on the sides closest to the side windows creating a sort of puppy dog ear look. Been looking around but just see factory replacements and wondering if they make any in a hard plastic type instead of ( what I think they are made of ) that cardboard material. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Post Update

Found a site that will upholster them with leather for about $350.00 but I have to ship em to them and a few weeks later get them back. The site address is downsouthvettes.com
if anyone is interested.

Will post a pic once they arrive and again once installed.

Smile Sunvisors installed

Hi Dave here they are, I chose to get a tan color and I am happy with them. They look great but I dont like how I can see where the originals folded on the sides. I hope these dont do the same thing.

Thumbs up They do look great.

Robert,

Those are NICE! If they last another 10 years, you'd have paid only $30/year - well worth the cost, IMO.

Thanks Dave, Im happy with them and found out that the visors rest against the top and create that bend in the sides. From now on I am going to leave them slightly down when the top is up. I hope this helps prolong them.

Google Custom Vette Creations they completely rebuild and rewrap them.
