V8V sun visor.

Anyone else fed up of seeing the reflection of their shirt in the vanity mirror when the visor is down.
Looking for a tidy way of covering it up, shame it doesn't have a sliding blind like so many others do.

Replace with the later ones that have a cover ?...not sure what year they came in, but a noticeable small improvement over the original 2005 sun visors....

Thanks bogie, didn't know about the newer version, my 56 plate ones are still the same design as MKIII ones!!!

Same problem with my 2006 DB9V.
Even on my 03 Focus the mirror has a sliding cover.
Also the sun visor is so slim it's very little use in preventing glare.
It might appear,to some, as not a big problem but it is an unnessary nuisance.
I obviously wear sun glasses to alleviate the problem but that doesn't excuse poor design standards.
Whilst at it I'll also moan about the lack of usable cubby space to store other small items.
The passenger storage box is a faff to close unless you have the AM thingy book at exactly the right angle.
Just unnessary irritants that don't however ruin my overall pleasure of owning a very pretty car.
