Opinions please. Fulton Visor.
Well I mocked up my fulton style visor that I thought I really wanted but now after looking at it I'm not sure. I'd just like to here others opinions.

Kinna a bad shot with the phone. It was getting dark.

Re: Opinions please. Fulton Visor.
I think you did a great job of getting to set right and it looks good, but i like a truck without them... with that said, it's your's doing what you love and what feels right to you.. cool truck i could live with it either way..

Re: Opinions please. Fulton Visor.
I love the visors. Yours looks great and if you are thinking of painting it body color, it will blend in better with the truck.

Looks way meaner with the visor, really suits it and fits in with the black running boards too.

Re: Opinions please. Fulton Visor.

Opinions we all have them, if you like it leave it on it is an accessory you can always remove it.

Re: Opinions please. Fulton Visor.
For not being a visor guy I WILL say I think they look better & more "appropo" on an AD truck than on TF trucks.

On TF trucks it always strikes me like the owner wants the look of a '56 F100 rather than the more subdued "brow" GM designed into the TF's. don't get me wrong, I really like the '56 F100, but I'm NOT a Ford guy. It's gotta be a Chevy for me.

You can see more pictures of my truck on page 35 of the show your projects section and then a few pages after that of some other photo updates.

Thanks.

Re: Opinions please. Fulton Visor.
I've never been a fan of visors since I pulled one off a 50 Chevy 4 door I had when I was 15 and threw it in the trash. However If you run one run the rest of the chrome regalia that goes with it to make it authentic. Big hood ornament, extra chrome frufru and a spot light or two. It's got to be the whole package or none.

Re: Opinions please. Fulton Visor.
Is my mind playing tricks on me? I think it seems to look better in the sun than the first dark picture.

I just ordered more paint. Thanks again for all of your opinions.

No it's not your mind. Dark photographs tend to allow shadows and dark objects with little contrast to blend together.
