Just curious if you guys had any idea on where to pick up some of those sexy carbon fiber arms for the wipers ?!?! I have a 96 Camry CE.

My old arms are rusting away....

Thanks, Eric

Carbon fiber arms?? No such thing unless you're talking about the "faux" CF. Real carbon fiber would be major dough-age.

I say take them off and repaint them black.

Im not talking about the blades... im talking about the arms...

I see alot of Civic's with those nice white/black arms FOR the blades...

Thanks, Eric

i dont know if they have them available but i know theres a guy justin a.k.a. wraith that deals with carbon fiber, so maybe you could talk to him... i doubt they make them for our cars though....

Just buy the Carbon fibre stickers and slap it on the wiper arms...if you're desparate, I think they even sell cheap CF sticker rolls at Walmart!

Uh what's the big deal.

Wiper is a wiper - nobody's going to notice if it's made of C/F or just plain plastic. :roll:

Ok Ok.... i dont wanna piss everyone off here. Maybe i was mistaken by "carbon fiber" and should have just said different color arms... but now i have decided to sandblast the arms and polish them to a silver shine... i mean sh**, the paint is already starting to come off of them.. and it looks mad crazy silly ghetto.. thats why i posted this message in the first place

:smile:

My friend and I just sandblasted his wiper arms, but after about six months with jsut the silver metal showing they began to rust. So be careful. If you are going to do it I would recommend spray painting it with a colored or clear enamel.

Hummm..
I am using the Carbon Fiber look wipers wings. It can cover the arm. Can it help you instead of changing the whole arm of the wipers?
