    Problem seems to be that the e30 median age is post honda craze and some were not alive durring the Gruppe2, ITC, DTM days. So you have no pre-rice opinion. So there is little reason to argue with those in the post-rice generation.

    If you run a single, search for your favorite tuner's DTM team and run it in the same possition they did. Or is that too simple? Then run it in the same possition they did in thier catalog they sold it from. If you run a bonrath or other non tuner pick a possition.

        No, Mercedes just suck. I test drove the new C320 sedan, it was as about as fun as a Buick.....handled like one too. :?

        OOO and BTW I guess the Lexus Altezza and RX430 are rice because they have those Altezza taillights. NO. What, they are stock like that. Some silly ricer didn't try to copy the style. :roll:

        Altezza lights on an Acura = RICE. Q.E.D.

        Andre you can't beat me!

            I say go with 2 wipers :P

            Mono wipers don't look that bad, but when it's stuck up in the middle it looks completely rediculous.

              Why? Andre shouldn't win. That's crazy.

              My point is that Andre mentioned that Mercedes have mono wipers stock, so they must be rice. I said that was a false statement. I compared that assumption with the use of altezza taillights on Acuras. Clear taillights on Hondas are rice, but are good stock on Lexus. Q.E.D.

              I do drive a Buick, cuz my BMW isn't repaired yet. Drives about as sporty as the Mercedes. So it's not my call "dude".....it's the car that was lying around to give me transportation. I didn't really have a choice, besides a Huffy.

              P.S. God bless 808BMW.

              P.S.S. $225??? + cost of E30 M3 motor..... http://www.akgmotorsport.com/monowiper.html
              holy crap. that's expensive rice!

                    Mercedes is the Caddy of Germany, and is sub-par to Porsche and BMW. I just said they are like Buicks because their handling is so haggard. I'd take a MB over Buick anyday. MB is . Like their new Crossfire ;) .

                    If I won, I'm going to leave you ricers to debate what side to put your mono blade on. I think it is a waste of money. Shit $200+ could be a chip, go towards new brakes, or new tires (maybe ones that fit)....... I'll drop it if no one responses to me.

                    Andre, you kill yourself first. I don't give a fuck if you've driven a million mercedes, their handling is still not as good as BMW or Porsche.

                    Hey, I made my point, Mono wipers I believe are RICE.

                    Rice: (n, adj.) (1) Denoting an overplayed automotive modification. (2) Spending money on mods that hinder safety or performance just for show looks or street popularity.

                    One final time, I'll repeat what I just stated:
                    If no one replies to me or references me, I won't post again on this thread on your can talk about which side you want your wiper on........Swears

                        c'mon guys, you ruined the thread. btw, the new e46 ti series have the same tail lights.
                        The reason I wanted a mono-wiper is because I was riding around in my friend's MBZ and I liked it. So, I made one, there's no way in hell I'm shelling out over $30 for one of these.
                        Does that change anything?

                            Can you order just the wiper arm? I had to bend a factory one and if you look closely it looks a bit sketch.

                              that wont do it, the original arm is smaller and too skinny, plus it wont clean as good as the bonrath system

                                some of us already have a lot of other mods (including chips, intakes and exhaust, breaks, suspension, etc). So if we're just looking for something else to do, then something like a mono wiper is not a waste of money. Especially since some of you seem to hate it so much, that's all the more reason for those of us who like it to get one. :)
