“Most drivers report much long life” with FM-V visors, and the visor’s coating “not come off when you drive hard rain condition.” Don’t mistake the amusing use of Japanglish on FM-V’s website as an indicator of an inferior product – these are definitely worthy competition to the other two popular mirrored visors available on the market (CaraCoat and LLC from Lucky Design).
I recently got a couple of these fancy looking visors for use on my yet to be “dressed up” plain white Arai SK5 helmet.
