visors
Could some one tell me all the advantages and disadvantages of getting visors?

Is it just to reduce noise when opening windows?

does it have any affect on gas mileage?

AccurateTSX is an unknown soldier, or on the road to either parallels.

it also reduces glare from the sun.

probably has some negative effect on gas mileage compared to with the windows rolled up, and some positive effect when the windows are rolled down slightly, but both are probably negligible

also when its raining you can have your windows rolled down and the water wont be able to get in. about the design i read somewhere that its built aerodynamically to reduce drag so i wouldn't worry about it =)

and your car looks JDM ^^

It shouldn't have any real effect on the aerodynamics of your car. It serves all the purposes listed above. The main advantage I see from them is the glare reduction and the ability to have your windows slightly cracked while raining or snowing for whatever reason.

The advantages I think most have already have listed. I don't know there are any disadvantages. IMO, They do however add a nice look to the car.
