Ok, I've had these on my car for about a year now, and my younger brother pulled the passenger side visor down a little too quickly and made a small tear in one of the little insurance card holder flap thingies


(not mine, just an example pic of what I'm talking about)
Or whatever you wanna call them xD;

It's not a bad tear, maybe an 1/8 of an inch but I don't want them to get worse cuz these things are kinda tough to find in good condition.

Any suggestions as to how to mend it?
It tore along the trim seam, btw.

 

Nobody knows how to repair these things?
oO
...am I that screwed? XD;

 

There are cloth patch kits out there, but if you want to properly repair it, you'll have to strip it to resew fresh cloth. Short of reupholstering the visors, the damage will always be visible if you look close enough.

On the up side, I'm in the process of reupholstering my entire car right now, and I can tell you from experience that the sun visors are probably the easiest part to do. Just be careful when you take it all apart, don't go ripping it to shreds, and use the old cloth as a guide for the new cloth.

 

The only problem is they're not covered in cloth
It's that darker leather/vinyl stuff
How to patch that stuff?
I mean, I don't use those little card holders, but it still kinda bugs me there's a rip in one of them since it's kinda a rare-ish item
I'm weird like that XD;

 

MIGHTY MEND IT

 

Take a pic of the rip, there are vinyl repair kits out there.

 

I'll post one tomorrow if I can
So it's made of vinyl, eh?
I thought so...and no I will not succumb to your product pitch, Billy Mayes' ghost!

The material covering it doesn't change what I already said.
