pulled the windshield wipers off=WOW

what a great view of the road it's like a whole new look

and the body appears much more streamlined

What a noticable difference. I always thought the wipers stuck out way too much

of course I take precautions just in case a storm hits
take it out only on nice days anyway
keep the wipers in the car with me, they pop right back on
rainx the windshield

On my car they are fine, how can they hide that much?

If you take off the steering wheel, that would give you an even better view of the road!

Seriously: I believe it's a law in all 50 states to keep the wipers on in all motor vehicles. It's also a requirement for DE events with PCA.

I know I know I know

I drive it only on nice days anyway

I don't carry around an umbrella on a sunny day, but I do keep one around for when I need it

Lots of cars have hidden wipers engineered into the design, it's not so absurd

Try it and and see for yourself then post back. Take all of 5 minutes.

The unobstructed view of the glossy hood exceeds any downside.

whatever, maybe it's just me
