Title: External Sunvisor underside colour?
Post by: FBvisitor on October 09, 2003, 10:38:21 AM
Hi all,

A question for all those lucky people with Nasco external sunvisors fitted to their cars. What is the usual colour of the underside. I have been told a flat green colour was commonly used but I'm wondering if other colours have been used, flat black etc. My car is a pastel yellow.

Cheers, Jason.

Jason,

Mine was originally a flat black, and was recently repainted this colour - we actually used two pack  Chrysler Black with flattening additive. It looks slightly greyish when viewed from inside the car.

Cheers,

Craig.

The Sunvisor on our FE has a flat green underside.

Jason,
The majority of Nasco external sunvisors i've seen have been flat green.

Only 2 colours were black and green.  I think the blue cars had black underneath, because of the colour clash, but this would have possibly been done by the dealer when they were fitted.

For a little off model, every one that I've seen has been the light green underneath.  Close colour match would be the old Airfix M8 colour.

Cars I've seen it on: 2 x Morris 1100 S (mine), 3 x HQ (friends & neighbours), 2 x XW Fairmonts (friends), 6 x VW Type 1 (one friend's family), 1 x VE Regal (mine), 1 x VF Regal (mine) and many other cars in wrecking yards.  I haven't seen any fitted to blue cars that I can remember though

I have seen 3 NOS visors, 2 were green and one was black, but I would certainly agree that the majority by far are green.
