    Ok, first full day with the AVS vent visors on and I am so happy they don't whistle down the highway. They look good, and the adhesive works great!

    Added some @rrentrop goodness. Freshly applied pics - more tomorrow after weekly bath.

    Hey Cap, on your Solid Fold. Now that you've had it for a few months, what's your overall opinion of it? I'm looking at that one and the Leer Trilogy. The Trilogy has a lower profile with beveled edges but the Solid Fold comes in at a much better price point. Thanks

    The Solid Fold has been, well, quite solid. No issues, zero, zip, zilch, none. Still love it, glad I got it.

    It hasn't leaked a drop since I got it lined up a second time after the last time I took it off. Once it's in position it works great, especially since I wash it with a pressure washer.

    If you order from AutoAnything, get them in a chat session and ask them about sales. I got an extra 10% off, and I still got it on a Black Friday sale.

    Good luck!

    Thanks Cap. Looking there at AutoAnything (with the 10%) an comparing it to the Tonneau vender here on TW, the pricing is just about the same.

    I finally went out in the dark and took a night shot of the side marker light decals all lit up. @rrentrop is a maestro.

    The final version is perfect, aligns exactly with the bulb, and still throws a lot of light. Very nice!

    ...will stay on the truck until I wear them fuckers out. THEN they might get replaced by something more aggressive. She is a pavement princess, an asphalt Avenger, and those stock Toyo tires ride smooth.

    So, basically, like 7 years from now. Maybe. Depends how they wear, or how rough conditions are at the mall.
