the japanese on the packaging says "sabanna akuriru baiza"

This is spelled in katakana so that means its not native japanese words. in this case it sounds english.

i think it means this: savanna 'somthing' visor. i have no idea what akuriru is, it might not be english.

Mazda USA can only order parts that were available on US or Canadian market vehicles. The Japanese part numbers and the US/ Canadian part numbers don't interchange. When I worked at a Mazda Dealership I tried several ways that only internal people have access to, but none of them work. You are going to have to go through someone living or visiting Japan or through an importer.

Thats a damn clean TII you got there. Props. What year Vette is that in the background? My guess is '67.

I like the Vette. If I could afford both I wouldn't be doing a hybrid. The visors look great.

The lip is just the OEM S5 lip...

And to answer Wankels-Revenge, its just the stock Blaze Red paint...

And for TurboSmoke:

My gf's mom bought them for me from a dealership in Tokyo. I sent her jpegs of what I wanted. She want there and said the parts person was actually excited to order such a rare FC part, haha!

And to show how dedicated my gf is...she wrapped them up...carried them with her on the plane...and even got stopped by security because it looked like a wrapped-up shotgun! haha ...Luckily they made it here

My friend's wife lives in Japan and she has ordered the window visors in the past. If you need to order a set, please let me know.
