LOL I actually like the big mirrors, but I like the small ones too.

we had a black 86 4x4 had a visor on it, it did blend quite well with the truck.

It seems like every parts truck that I buy comes with a visor on it.

shoot fitz I need one of the light covers for mine, it's broke like the one in the middle of yours.

You should sell the visors on ebay or something.

Well ALL of thse visors look "COOL" compared to the one i had! it was some rounded lookin thing! oh and the batmobile wings he had those on at one time. They were in the back of the truck along with some running boards, fender flares, the original wheels and bumper. Scraped em all! the bumper was crushed and thats all i woulda kept. I posted in the 73-87 truck section about my freebie 92 burban and possibly a freebie 84 crew cab complete!!! cab was covered but left outside. interior is sweet! rebuilt 454 that was in the garage. cancer free. been sitting for about 5 years!

I'm not a big fan of ebay. I can see it being usefull to buy/sell something extremely rare, but for common stuff (like a visor) I don't think it's worth the effort for the $$ you would make off of it. I sold a few things on there in the past in the shipping was a pain.
If anyone is in Mass and wants a free visor, they can come pick one up.

ohhh man I hate the curvy visors they are ugly for sure.

As for visors man are you kidding? I liked to never found one for my 88. My dad found his but it was some old stock stuff and paid $150 for it. He might want a lighted one, I can ask him, you wanna yank a light cover off one for me? I need one.

that's the same visor on both trucks I posted and the pink truck, what's the difference?

That truck is a hodgepodge 88-98 stepside bed, 73-80 front end with an 81-87 stryle front bumper, and a hood scoop from a dodge or ford aint it?

The pink truck really would look good with some small mirrors. I think the bright color makes the big mirrors stand out more than a darker color would. Speaking of bolting plastic stuff on your truck, I saw a guy with a long bed one of our trucks the other day with the wing off of a Grand Am bolted to the roof backwards. It looked like a boomerang but at the same time for some reason it made me think of that monster truck that looks like a dog. It was definantely right up there with the purple Craigslist truck.

LOL. It could be yours, but at that price it won't last long!

With baseball hat


Without baseball hat


Personal preference but I hate them

That's the hottest pink truck I've ever seen...with or without the hat.

I like the big mirrors, but they don't go well with the clean look of your truck Vile. Smaller ones would be less noticeable is all.
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs

I guess we all have our pet peeves on these trucks, personally I like the visors. But I think a Phantom grille is the worst thing you can do to one of these trucks, other than paint it pink........ just saying. ;)
