One good deed !
Heres a story that worked out for me. I decided to take my worn out visors off my 92 to see if I could try and reupholster them myself as they were looking very worn and old. I have read many CF members comments on how to repair the flapp on the visors that are weak and flopping down. I took them out and took them apart and saw exactly how they are put together ( not very well from my opinion ) and figured I could somehow redoe them myself. I went to my neighbors about five houses down from mine to see if he had some pressed card board and some material as he does reupholstering himself. He asked for the visors and said he could do them for me. I really wanted to try them myself and I didn't want to pay to get them done. He said he would give me a good deal and not to worry. I asked him to make them more solid and to be one whole peice, because the flap doesn't do anything anyway.Tonight I received my visors back and he didn't want any sort of payment, because in the winter time I always snow blow the sidewalk up to and including his house. So long story short, do good for others and eventually somebody will do good for you!!! Here are a few pictures.

Nice job!
I paid about $89 for mine to be professionally redone, yours look about the same as mine except mine were re-done with a similar fabric as the originals (only heavier)
I bet that felt good - He deserves a case of cold adult beverages!!

Here is you chance to get Karma going your way again:
I send you my visors and you give them to him. He fixes them and you keep blowing off that sidewalk this winter. I put my visors back on my car and think nothing but good thoughts about you. This should work out well. PM me you address so we can get this thing rolling.
