Well, it bothered me enough that I bought the plug kit for it, but not so much I minded leaving it on a shelf for a year before getting around to the 30 minute install!
If my Turbo was an all-weather car (which it is supremely capable of) and driven in heavy rain, snow, sleet, lots of highway grime, etc., the wiper makes sense. And while I can't say it's never driven in the rain, if the weather looks rainy or nasty, I will almost always take my other turbo, the 6,000 pound F150 Ecoboost :-)

Thanks for this Paul. I was washing my car the other day and the rear wiper came down abruptly and scratched the crap out of the side While I like the wiper, I don't like it enough to keep enduring scratches, so it is going to be deleted. I pinged them to see if they had another color besides Arctic Silver, which would be close but I'd like Polar or black.

IF your car is black or you can handle one of these colors, it's a $1 mod.

It's when I sit in traffic I use it.

I treat the rear window with Rain-X and I have never had a problem with water hindering my vision through that window, so not having a rear wiper is absolutely no loss for me.

I know, holy thread resurrection Batman ... !!
I'm looking to do a rear wiper delete, but can no longer find Alloy & Carbon's products on Ebay or Amazon. The OP posted a link to A & C's website which was faulty then, and still doesn't work, he also posted an Ebay link which no longer works.
Has anyone bought one of their wiper delete kits recently ? If so does anyone have email address I can contact them on ?
Many thanks.
