**CLOSE**Good condition windshield wiper arms
I believe these windshield wiper arms are discontinued and mine are rusty. Let me know if you have some relatively nice ones laying around.
I would think all years are the same.
Thanks
Aaron

If those aren't to your liking, you can easily refurb your current ones.
Had some rust chips in mine. I noticed they were discontinued as well, well at least the driver's side is discontinued. Tried replacing a few months ago. Ended up buying one side new, and one side used from ahparts.com
I bought some SEM trim spray paint, sanded them down, spray painted and put them back on. They look seriously brand new. I even sprayed the brand new one so it would match with the same exact shade of black.
I definitely didn't need to buy replacements, I was just worried that I would mess up and wanted a backup pair. In retrospect it was a super easy job.

Pretty cool cowl too. Who makes that?

A new cowl was like $200. Found a used one but realized it has a wrinkle texture to it so you can't just sand out some blemishes to paint without sanding it all. Then I found the carbon fiber for $280, ordered it and called it a day.
these guys have it: http://special-carbonfiber.com/index...product_id=235
