Everytime I see an older car, I notice they all have chrome(chrome-lookalike plating, whatever) wiper arms. I don't think it would look bad on the Vic, if I painted mine in a chrome paint. Especially where the wipers are hidden until they're turned on. If I did this, I would probably get the chrome wiper framed blades to match. What do you guys think?

Meh, its just wiper arms. Like you said, if you don't like it you can change it back. Thats one thing I love about boxes and old cars in general, the wipers tuck away under the hood. Wish my towny did.Chris - A 20th Century Man \m/ ^.^ \m/

That would be a good idea...IF they were stainless. But he will pollish the hell out of them and they will instantly rust.
