New visors

My 65 never had a passenger side visor to my wife's chagrin. My original drivers side visor had seen better days and I had spray painted it black prior to reinstallation. I figured if I had to get one for the passenger side I may as well go all out and get a new pair with chrome brackets. I got some from Truckshop OC. I see they are made by Counterpart. Not impressed. The angle is way off. They droop down. (see pic). Compared to the original they are not bent enough and the bends is so close to the mounting bracket its impossible to bend it further. I ended up bending it on the long leg as close as I could get to the elbow. It took a lot of remove/reinstall, back and forth and the visor is a bear to slide back and forth not to mention trying not to mark things up. I couldn't get both exactly the same but I'm probably the only one who will notice. My advise would be to use original brackets and new visors.
