I don’t know why I don’t get new wipers all the time. I got the most expensive ones I could find 30 bucks each for the Rain X ones, and holy shit! Bring on the motherfuckin’ water!!! I drove all the way to work today with the washer squirters on. It’s like sex behind the wheel!! ---

1. You got raped on the price. Those are $8 wipers everywhere else and yes they are awesome. 2. You need to buy a supercharger or something if you get that juiced on wipers. ---

RainX, And Silblades FTMFW, the bosch ones suck as the squeak way to fuckin much The Silblades on my g20 were 35 bucks a piece when they came out 3-4 years ago, theyve been on my car for 3 years and still dont streak ;D Although the plastic tab at the end that holds the blades on fell off last winter when i was shoveling the car off… so every now and then I have to push it back into place The nice thing is that the whole thing is made from silicone, so after about a month or so of use it puts a nice coating of it on your windshield and acts like RainX, I never use my wipers when I the northway/thruway when its raining ---
