Are there supposed to be two of these little plastic spoilers? I have one on one of my blades but the other is plain.

Noob question but I can't find the answer anywhere.

According to the Kyosho FD model in front of me at my desk at work, only the passenger side wiper has a spoiler.

My car didn't come with any of them. Can any one take pics? I've seen them in the past, but not since my FD ownership where I would pay attention to the details .

I plan on adding the spoiler back to the car at some point. That's just cool .

My old 1990 miata was like that...what does that little thing do anyways?

uxcFD

yeah i just have one as well on my '94 pep.... i thought one fell off or somthing but i suppose not, if you need il take a picture when i get home

i would suppose it is suppose to keep the wiper down at speed. I held on to my OEM wiper for a while, but tossed it. I would have kept it if I knew it was worth money.

I seem to remember it being on the driver's side, but it has been a while.

I still have the stock wiper arms, and the spoiler is on the driver side only.

as you can see I need to repaint mine

Yeah - spoiler on the driver's side wiper only. I suppose the thought process was that if you're driving fast enough in the rain for the spoiler to be effective, it's better that the passenger not see what's happening in front of the car, anyway.

jeremyb

haha I'm painting mine right now! lol. But yeah driver side here only too. Anyone got an answer to the 8th wonder of the world? What does it do? lol

The ones on the Miatas are bigger too. They actually look pretty nice.

Like JMunilla94RX7 said it keeps the wiper held firmly against the glass at speed.

I used the plasticote stuff on my CRX. On my 7 they look new. Most people won't have the originals as they are not aware you can replace just the blade instead of the whole wiper.

it's definitely only on the driver's side and like everyone else said, it's to keep your wipers on your windshield at high-speed. Stock impreza's all have them, too. They look pretty cool, to boot.

I removed mine when doing a wiper change. I noticed immediately on the highway 70+ in heavy rain the blade was fluttering off of the windshield not doing its job. Functional and necessary Mine is dull as well has anyone repainted the arms with any success?

BlueRex

I have. My car was originally Montego Blue so when I had it repainted the wipers stood out too much. I removed the arms and did some sanding. I kept most of the original coat intact to leave as a base coat then repainted with some regular Home Depot black spray paint and clear coat. Came out looking great.

Of course after I did all this I realized that I don't drive the RX-7 in the rain anymore and left them off.
