Lol. Same problem here. Kind of strange its doing this for so many. Maybe the visor slowly warps at that corner. If that's the case it will need to be something stronger than double sided tape to hold it down. Ill be heading to check the auto store for some sort of glue in the coming days.

did u guys glue it all correctly and completely?

because i had the same thing happen to mine, but it was our own fault because we were skimpy on the glue and put most of it on the top and ended up neglecting the sides (we also rushed it because I was heading out to a car meet)

anyways, we just put more glue (well put the right amount we should have put in the first place) on it and as of right now (its been about 3 weeks since) everything is on real sturdy

^^ I have tried this 3x. I also used a razor to scrape off the old glue and
nail polish remover so the new glue would have a clean surface to adhere
to. Now don't get me wrong I'm in no way bashing this product I like it alot one of my favorite mods I just think I need stronger glue thats all

well i can say the last time i saw him (the day we fixed my rear visor, 3 weeks ago)...he already measured my door frames the week before

he told him his ETA on when its ready was a month or so from then (he design it but has to send it out of the country to have it molded/produced since he has no contact for that in the US)

so my best guess is the prototype will be ready sometime between next week to the end of the month

(same ETA for CUSCO strut bar! 3rd fitting...hopefully it works this time. 3rd time is the charm rossfingers: )

Gorilla Glue with a precision tip and a C clamp. Put a thin bead on the inside of the contact area. I had same problem on the trailing edge, drivers side. I think carwash bumped it too hard. Clamp it down for at least an hour.

Clean area with rubbing alcohol prior to applying Gorilla Glue. The glues expands, so a thin bead on the inside of contact area is all that is needed. Get C clamp and glue at Walmart.

Kind of looks like the concept of adding mudflaps and rain guard. Not my cup of tea

I thoroughly cleaned mine, put a lot of the adhesion promoter on the top and down the little sides and let it sit like it said. The top right corner is the only spot coming up. It sort of looks to me like the visor is a bit too big and laps over the window on each side a little. But since it laps over on the left side the same and hasn't come up, then I'm not sure thats the problem.

The Pontiac came from the factory like that and looks a hell of alot more suited with the black/gold scheme. The Scion Tc2 with gold wheels and black body really degrades the look making it RICE.

How dare you insult the Pontiac!

Ouch.
haha.
To each their own I suppose but it hasn't hit the rice mark yet on my meter. A few dragon/tribal decals, a fake BOV, fart-can exhaust, and a giant pedestal spoiler... then I will consider myself rice-i-fied.

My page is jacked, its showing all comments as posted today.
Anyway, Kidjustin, have you heard anything new about the side window visors?

For the 2nd time, my car got rained in, do to my insistance in cracking the windows during the day. 99 degrees by 9 am and not a cloud in the sky, pouring cats and dogs by 10:30.....uhg

I want vent visors!
