Seen cars with their window visor being sprayed to their own car colour ... as mi car is white ...wanna have a white window visor.. but heard tht if u spray the visor , after some time the colour will crack as the base is plastic and flexible. Is it true? So far have any of the bros here done tht?

Just to share my experience on my visor. .. At the rear passenger side, part of the visor double sided tape came off(I guess SE never install properly) and whenever i travel at about 90 to 100km/h, can see that the visor is flapping in the wind. So i decided to take it out and reinstall with brand new 3m tape. Somehow, careless me, i broke the visor. I wanted to purchase a new set from Vim. Fortunately i manage to salvage the broken visor and rejoin it back using chlorofoam. After joining back, use Nippon Gloss spray paint to finish off and i did the same for the rest of the 3 areas. So now all seems new.

I bought near my workplace at simpang bedok. 1 can is more than enough. I did 4 layers. Applying a new layer after the initial layer has dried up.
