    The sun visors on the GTC are different material than the headliner material (i believe from my visual observation).

    Anyone know what that material is and where to buy it......?

    Also - what other cars besides the GTC use that same material which is heat sealed on the edges?

    Are these other cars, like 275 or 365 different shape and style ?

    Im working with a local manufacture to potentially make these and want to get some of the correct material to evaluate the process.

    Appreciate the info and help -

    Pictures, including close-ups of material grain/texture, of yours might be helpful to those not closely familiar with GTC visors. For example, I’m quite familiar with 365 GTB/4 sun visors and currently even working on a pair, but don’t know how they look or are made in GTCs.
    Might also be a good idea to specify which GTC (330/365/?...) is being referred.

    Looks like the overall shape & size is same or very similar to that of 365GTB/4 visors, but the (heat seamed) vinyl has a different type of texture and color(s).
    Design, shape /size and attachment method of the vanity mirror is also different.
    Inside material is likely same, semi-firm foam.
