lets hear what you guys say, i don't drive with them on becuase i do not drive in the rain and it gives the car a cleaner look. and i get bashed on for not having them on. what do you guys think?

I don't know, IMO why risk it? And is it legal to even do this? I honestly never saw windshield wipers as detracting from the car's overall appearance. Guess because we're all so used to seeing them.

I have never used my wipers on the cobra. I don't even know if they work :shrug: I'm not going to take them off though. They don't look bad, and I have them "lowered" one notch... I have waxed my windshield and I have no need to use them. Even in the rain I can see pretty clearly although I haven't driven in real heavy rain yet.

It is illegal to run without them.

I don't think they look all that bad honestly. I don't ever drive in the rain but I still have them on my car.

No wipers here! I keep them both on the floor in the back though, so I'll be prepared if I get caught in the rain. Been ridin' without wipers since I was 16!

Factory wipers with the "chin spoilers" FTW, even though my car never sees rain. :-D

I haven't had wipers on mine for some time, but my car never see's rain. I keep all windows coated in Rainx just incase. I have caps over the hardware and it looks much cleaner, plus those bastards are heavy! :D
