I think u mean a sunstrip. I was dying to pop and and take a pic of my flip down sun visor for you - but I'm not driving the subaru today lol.

Have a look at the white motor, page 9 on here. Not a fan of sunstrips myself but this one looks ok.

i had to remove mine for the MOT. it is meant to be translucent. mine was solid black. i got in trouble with the police too

apparently a solid strip may obscure the driver. cant see why as the fitted visors do exactly the same

Yes made up of three parts, the black sun strip itself, you decide on the size, though dont go any lower or deep than mine because you wont be able to see the traffic lights and the plod will nick you

The second part is the subaru lettering. I chose a subtle silver tint to it, cant see it in the pictures but it looks the dogs

Finally the logo...I copied all the parts from the WRC car and then sent my design to get made up. Fairly easy to fit, a squeege, loads of water and a bit of fairy liquid. Peel off the backing paper, you will need a friend to line up the strip and trim if necessary (i used a stanley blade very very carefully)
use the squeege and your hands/nails to get rid of all the bubbles.
*note let dry before doing the other two*

Then , again with a friend, line up the lettering and apply, using water.
*dry*

then the logo, same procedure.

Job done

and the man to get it all from is: Sticky Stuff (member on here)
Cost about £30-40.
