Vent Visors - Front Only on Screw?

Vent Visors - Front Only on Screw?
Hey guys,
I've got a black 09 FX4 and I'm looking into getting vent visors. I've had them on all my previous F-150's and loved 'em, especially during the summer time to keep the heat down in the cab and not having to worry about rain sneaking up and getting my interior wet. But those were all regular cabs.
Anyway, for my Screw, I'd like to have them up front, but leave the back ones clear so that I can still fly window flags when I want, and also b/c my lab might loosen or crack them b/c she's too damn impatient when I'm rolling the window down
So my question is, has anyone ever just done the front two windows and left the back alone? Pictures? I'm worried that the truck will look too goofy and won't be cohesive w/o installing on the back also. Suggestions and opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks!

The first duty of my truck is to 'function for me and my needs'.
You have valid reasons to not install on the back.
When it comes time to sell the truck just put the back shades on so nothing appears 'missing'. Potential buyers don't care about your functional needs, they just wonder how much it will cost them to buy back shades.
So it comes down to the brand of vent shade you buy.
Some brands like Weathertech sell - Front & Back, Front Only and Back Only.
Some other brands sell only a set of four for your truck.
If you can buy just the front, then buy the back when needed.
If you have to buy a set of four, just squirrel the back ones away someplace.

I've officially been scared/shamed into going all-or-nothing More than likely nothing. I like the way the in channel versions look, but I don't want to scratch tint, etc. I appreciate the feedback, it's right in line with what I was thinking. I figured y'all might talk me into it, but alas your opinions are in line with my own. I can't go goofy-ing up a sexy 09 FX4! Thanks again.
