Once they're pitted like that it's hard to get them looking nice again. :alan2cents:

That's what I'm afraid of. These are out of the Charger. The car has repops in it now but the grain is wrong and the stitching is wrong.

They come off real easy...Just pry them open.....So swap the rusty ones for the new reproduction ones  :veryexcited:

I'd like to JUST get repopped new clips. my original visors are great, just pitted clips. anyone know where to get just the clips?
Growing older is mandatory...growing up is optional.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
