Default Orataro Rear Window Vent Visors

A sneek peek of my new rear window vent visors. Designed to match the OEM Toyota bB Vent Visor are these rear window vent visors.

This sample was pulled in clear only because I only had clear in stock. I've always hated that the vent visors ended at the rear passenger window so I came up this one for the rear. The other vent visors for the other doors are still in the works and most likely will be available in clear or smoke.

Your comments would be appreciated.

Thanks again,
Ron

WoW! This is a visor for the rear most side windows. That might look nice in a dark smoke. I would love to see a picture of a set installed on an XB.
These windows do not open, so this is a cosmetic mod. But how much?
Photos will answer all my other questions.

That would be right. I will try to post pictures later. But, keep in mind these were cast in clear so it might not look right at this time.

Orataro, I'm very interested in this set for the rear. How much for the whole set of visors??

Funny, I was just in the process of purchasing some E Visors from the GB but if you have these coming very soon, I might have to change my mind.

That's why there's spray paint or duct tape!!

Orataro, you come up with far too many things for me to spend my money on!!!

Honestly, it'll be awhile still for the whole set to be available. This was the first pull from the mold and I plan on fine tuning the molds still. Currently the cost is far too high. Once all molds are complete and they can be pulled at one time, the cost comes down. Furthermore, the more molds I have, the cost goes down even lower.

Good idea and all, but there isn't a visor back there for a reason. That windown doesn't open.

ron-get out of my head!

I have e'sams and I would think they would finish the look of both the 'sams and the toyota visors if they tapered up toward the top of the window.

...or in all practicality, the non-shaded area below:


I suppose if you made them in two flavors, light for the toyota, and dark for the esam, I could take a hacksaw to 'em!

After some playing around today, finally installed the Orataro Vent Visors. Being these were only samples and clear was the only material in stock, vent visors were pulled in clear.

Bought some smoke spray on tint and was not happy with the end result of the spray tint. So, I opt to spray them black instead. I found that I liked them in black rather then a smoke.

After installation, found some changes I'd like to do but over-all very happy with them.

Enjoy!
