Clean rear window

Here are some pics of my new Uber wing. I forgot to tell you all about the best part. Note: I did not buy this wing thinking it would help the dirt on the rear of the car!

Take a good look at the rear of my car. I have driven over 80 miles since the last wash. This little lip help the way the air flows and keeps the dirt form collecting on the rear. I would say 75% better . Believe it or not.

Nice wing, but i'm more interested in how you got your plastic trim so glistening.

Looks like the NAM kit price is $239.00

Now that I reliezed the added benifit of a clean window, it's a steal.

I don't have an answer for that yet. I have had it on the car for a short time.

It's been very windy in So Cal so hard to tell.
