Default are ebay visors good quaity?

I'm trying to save money right now but I have the itch to mess with stuff on my car. I have wanted some visors for a while but the $100+ the jdm visors cost is just rediculous for what it is. I dont really see how someone could screw up visors, the tape that holds them might be crappy but good 3m tape is only a few dollars.Does anyone have any experience with these? I know I should just savebut I also know I'll give in and spend money I dont have, so something cheap will kinda hold me off for a while

If you are talking about the window vent visors, there are two different kinds. The "cheapo" kinds use 3M tape to stick the visor to the outside of the door. The "JDM fancy" kind use 3M to stick the visor inside the window track, where the window meets to top of the track. I didn't know there was a difference before I got my "cheapo" visors and now wish I would have, since the fancy ones lay tighter to the window and look much better. The sad thing is, is that you have to spend a lot more for those.

I almost forgot to answer your question... ...I got mine from eBay. They work, they look okay, you get what you paid for.
Good luck!

I got some off ebay for something like $30. Uses 3m tape and go inside the window track. Cleaned the windowstripping really well and installed them. Two days later, I rolled down the window and the visor came out of the track. So they get a thumbs down in my book due to the design for install. I would have been happier with a set that install to the outside of the window so they stay where they belong.

It's worth it to spend the money on the good ones. The cheap ones are just going to start coming off in a few weeks
