This is a hand-laid fiberglass component, not an injection-molded OEM plastic part.Because fiberglass is hand-produced, minor surface imperfections and variations can occur.
Normal fiberglass bodywork preparation should be expected before painting. This may include:
- Sanding the gel coat
- Finishing minor surface imperfections
- Minor trimming if necessary for fitment
- Priming
- Final sanding and body-shop preparation is recommended.For the best finished result, use a professional who has experience preparing and finishing fiberglass automotive components.TEST FIT BEFORE PAINTINGDO NOT PAINT THE VISOR BEFORE COMPLETING THE TEST FIT.
Test fitting establishes:
- Overall fitment
- Any minor trimming required for fitment
- Windshield clearance
- Windshield wiper clearance
Once the visor is painted, avoid repeatedly moving it around the vehicle because the finished surface can be scratched.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTSProfessional installation is recommended.Installation requires working with a fiberglass body component and drilling the A-pillars.
- Test fit the visor and establish the desired position and alignment.
- Check windshield wiper clearance. Cycle the wipers and make sure they do not contact the underside of the visor.
- Mark the mounting locations on the A-pillars after proper positioning has been established.
- Drill the A-pillars. The supplied self-tapping screws are used for the A-pillar mounting points.
- Remove the visor and complete fiberglass preparation, priming and painting.
- Apply the supplied Betaseal to the three center standoffs that contact the windshield.
- Reinstall the visor and secure the A-pillar mounting points.
- Allow the installation to settle for 24 hours before driving.
