Ray bans are very good also look at bolle and if you can't stomach the cost try bloc from halfords which start from £30, i keep a pair in the truck and they are pretty good.

p.s if you buy them from e-bay make sure they are genuine!!

These are mine, Chrome /black lens's, when wearing they are a very nice graduated grey tint (Darker at the top obviously) frames are very strong precision cut Grey carbon fiber, i've had many other makes over the years, but always return to Ray Bans

I also hate wearing sunglasses, but I too drive into the sun, these are the ones I wear, they are safety glasses but who cares, they are for driving not making a fashion statement.

I found some genuine RayBans in a car I sold. Mint condition all but a rubber bit on the arm missing. Anywhere you can buy em? Dunno whether to buy a case and a rubber bit and sell em.

I look like a twit with glasses but should wear them while driving really.

Sounds like a good find mate, erm with regards to parts, try googling ray ban repair parts but first I wud suggest finding the actual name of ray bans you have, a good way of doing that wud be type in ray bans in google and click on images...that way finding a part shud be easier... :wink:

Aluminium Gatorz FTW. I have the Magnums, but had radiators before. Pretty much live in them as have quite light sensitive eyes. I skydive in mine, as do many other skydivers as you bend them to shape your face - giving a nice snug fit.

Used to wear Oakleys, but they're nowhere near as good :)
