Wind deflecters!

Whats your veiws on them?..Ive got them on my black IV but im thinking about removing them!

One of the corners has come loose on one of them so thought id have a peek at the paintwork to see how good or how bad it is.. it doesnt look great but im thinking with T Cut or somethink it should come up quite nice..has any one else had them on theirs and removed them? If so has the paint cleaned up ok

Jodie, i have them on my evo 4, personally i love them alot better with them on, than without love. When i drive Steve's car i miss them.

I had to take mine off the front when i had my windows tinted and then Matt stuck them back on for me, the car didn't look right with them off. The best thing you can do if they are lose is to stick them back down with superglue.

At the end of the day it's personal choice

had them on my white IV. wind deflectors my left doodah after 100mph you still get wind coming in with window down , i took mine off but had to use a stem stripper to get the sticky backing off or you can use acetone, nail polish also works. As you say its a personal choice but if someone decides to be a twat and pull one off???? any way any body want some let me know got some.

Sure nail polish helps :shock: ? If so what colour I thought polish remover would be preferable
I have the deflectors fitted too, and personally I love em. They may not be as practical as they are supposed to be, but I think they finish the car nicely. My deflectors are a tinted dark brown/black colour and blend in nice with the car. 8)

Horses for courses I guess
