    should i take this wind noise thing off?

    i hate things on my car. wings/spoliers, ventvisors, etc. i think they all look stupid and are pointless. this thing does cut back on a lot of wind noise. what you think keep it on or take it off?

              Voted leave it on. If its on, nobody can see the bad spots its going to leave under it.

                I took mine off, the paint undernearth was bad, but a good polishing, and a wax and it is not even noticeable..

                Get a claybar ready I would say.

                            When I got my car home that was the first thing I took off. Or the "M42" badge on the trunk. I can't really remember. But regardless, lose it.

                              Heh, I just sold one of those for like $20 bucks to a local guy. He dug the shit out of it. I never minded it much, but it does interrupt the awesome box shape of the roofline.
                              Need a part? PM me.
