Ebay. There is a guy in Canada that makes them. about $165 US. Not a great finish but for the price it cleans up nice with sanding.

He goes by showcarsrob on ebay. Located in Foxboro, Ontario, Canada
That's all that I have. He is still listing other parts on ebay just not the visor.
I would reach out to him through ebay, he was responsive when I ordered from him last fall.
