They said its too low and the wipers overlap a certain portion by over 4cm that must be the limit i assume. The guy told me to get some shorter wipers so that they overlap less that 4cm, or to shorten my wiper arms??

Anyone know of any shorter blades that i should buy or how i can shorten wiper arms.

Cus im not rippin off that strip.

Cheers

mines not actually huge, it just curves down at the sides and therefore wiper goes over it too much

Took me ages to see the light, but they really don't look good on the majority of cars. As cheakycharlie said, sunstrips are more of a boyracer thing than a car modifier thing.
