ne1 else HATE those Sun Visor Warning Lables??

I would love to find a solution for those #$%^&@ ugly warning lables on our sun visors, that no one ever reads.
I know the S2K gang had a member/sponsor making leather covers to slip over them.
I have a guy that I have used before that does custom interior work, I think I'll drop in to get his opinion.
The other thing I wondered; is there anywhere these cars are sold that have un-labled sun visors? Do the JDM cars have lables?

NE1 have any ideas how to get rid of these lables??????

Every car I've ever owned had those, I like them, if reminds me of a spaceship warning or something.....

If you hate them that bad, photoshop a sticker that goes over them, and print it out on your printer.

Yeah JDM has them but ***. text looks soooo much cooler than english, people but it all over there cars!!!

That's my point. why force us to have ugly labels that no one reads anyway!

You used to be able to peal them off, but now they're imposible to remove.

Re: ne1 else HATE those Sun Visor Warning Lables??

yeah wtf are those..... i can understand liability for the company, but if there is a label that must be peeled off to be removed, then i thinkt hat the company has fulfilled their obligation to the owner.

bottom line... BLAME LAWYERS!!!! lawyers suck.... im not talking about 95% of lawyers because i realize that most of them dont practice trial law and stuff, but come on.... frivilous lawsuits make us have 6inch x 2 foot labels EMBEDED in our car in BRIGHT yellow saying something that EVERYONE knows... and DOESNT read.... If somebody doent know about the dangers of airbags iwth children/short people.... they desearve to be unprotected. I think that they should remove warnings from EVERYTHING and let the problem solve itself.... (darwins theory haha)

Re: ne1 else HATE those Sun Visor Warning Lables??

actually you shouldn't blame lawyers, there would be no lawyers in the first place if it weren't for people who sue over the tiniest things.. (Mcdonald's "hot" coffee lady). This is one of the ways manufacturers can protect themselves, otherwise they'll be sued if anything happens.

Or, you can ask this guy if he's willing to make custom warning labels for the g35.. he's a 350z owner and makes it for them for $24 shipped..

The problem with a G label is it will be upsidedown when flipped.
The Z works either way.....

I'd take a blank patch over a "G" patch....

Anything would be an improvement over the "fisher-price" warning labels...

Is this sarcasm? It's tough to tell by your tone of text.

Which product?

Goof off is a product http://www.valspar.com/val/resident/goof-off.jsp that has acetone in it. it will take the writing off the label and leave you with just a blank white strip
