My greatest mod since ownership.
Some fancy new Bosch windscreen wipers thanks to owen.
They look sleek, they don’t make a sound and they clear water off windscreens like a dream.

Probably added 5awkw.

I didn't know these were around in the 70's alex haha.

I keep purposely spraying water on my windscreen just so I can use them.
I can't wait for it to piss down rain so they can get to work!

Use Nanolex glass sealant and then you won't have to use them even in the rain :lol:

You can use nanolex to compliment your new wipers.

I'm due for some new Bosch Aerotwins, current ones are about 2.5 years old and no longer good. Need to visit Owen!

Full cut and polish done on the weekend preparing to go on the market.
I don’t think it’s ever looked this good. The interior is faultless as well!

Photo, straight out of the camera.

It's a shame to see this car going for sale Jay. It's looking awesome.
