    Cool Got a little mod done today :)

    Bit bored today, so set about taking rear wiper off. Grommet was only £1.75 from halfords, and only took about 15 mins to do...also used abit black silicon just to make sure it's water tight. Looks much better IMO

    I know it's a daft question but why would you not want a rear wiper? My favourite type of car is saloons but I always missed the rear wiper on ones that didn't have it.

    If I had a pound for evertime I didn't like a mod on here I could run a VXR!!

    Personal preference, he probably doesn't use his wiper much and anyone with any detailing knowledge knows how to make the water run off that window without a wiper, nice smoothed saloon look IMO
