They do keep the sun out of your eyes (although a tall driver will no longer be able to see where they're going).
They look awful.
I'm a short arse so that is ok. They look awful.
I'm worried about the look as well, so I will see whats its like. If its is awful then it will be getting peeled off!!!!

What is wrong with a pair of sunglasses?
A sun strip is OK for a racing car but it looks tacky on a road car.
I find it uncofortable on track with a pair of sunglasses and a crash helemt, thats really why I'm getting it. A sun strip is OK for a racing car but it looks tacky on a road car.
Agreed that it maybe a little tacky for the road, I dont really use the car on road anymore so its not too big an issue.

Tacky IMO.
They are a bit "kevin and Tracey".
Thank goodness it's not a bit Patrick, would be in tweed with a pipeThey are a bit "kevin and Tracey".
My real name isnt Patrick by the way. For those who were at their peak during the 80`s and can rememebr Hue and Cry will realise that the lead singer was called Patrick Kane. I never give out my real name on these type of forums, far too many weirdos!!

I think I'd have pretended to be called Patrick than admit to that 
I have a black S1 and I fitted a solid black sun strip. I'm quite short so it keeps the sun out good for me. I think the car looks sleaker with it on as well. I dont think I would want one with writting / graphics on though...
The solid black ones cost less than £10 so if you dont like it, just take it off...

Iv got one fitted to my chrome orange Exige S2. Looks the nuts in my opinion, maybe more suitable on an exige rather than an elise tho?!
Its a bit tricky to fit, I think it would be worth putting it in place, then leaving it an hour or so for it to dry slightly before you start trimming, otherwise it just slides about too much. I would also push out teh worst of any air bubbles first, then finish it off after leaving it an hour or so and trimming, miles easier!
