Matt H Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Can't believe i've arived so late to the party on this one! While the only reason you would do it is for aesthetics (and enough has been said on that one! ) It's not really that practical. Ah balls to it, It will look naf.

L33 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 i no u were but for people to say single wiper instantly means chav its stupid, and then pointed out its more chav to have lots of fiberglass and sound installs like a huge percentage of this forum have but then the people with all of the above still try and use the chav card if a member does some thing a little different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 But having a bright candy orange single turbo supra with a lairy bodykit is practical? Yeah it works just fine.

Branners Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Some advice on single wiper conversions http://www.torquecars.com/styling/single-wiper.php Are you sure you want your car to look like this? http://www.axisstyling.jp/vitz3.jpg http://www.autotintdesign.com/SINGLEWIPERS/ALMERA%20023.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/2185/4561/5462280004_large.jpg The original single wiper car fitted as standard http://z.about.com/d/cars/1/0/J/o/1/orig_panda.jpg And the reason it has a 'chav' tag http://www.fiatforum.com/gallery/data/600/my_cardone_up_lol.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Yeah it works just fine. Oh really? So what was your excuse for not going to Llandow? Borrowed form "Llandow - what's your excuse?" thread Easier said than done! A single stone chip would kill me! I love my single, but i don't go around corners in it! Thinking of investing in an MR2 for track days Very practical;) Having a single wiper means it aint going to clean the windows properly. And how do you work that out?

You guys should know by now i dont do things normal lol i like to be different but im certainly not chav by a long shot. Ive had a look at the merc wipers and im not sure as the wiper arm is still an ugly looking thing im after something that looks modern and covered and without the huge bit at the bottom of the arm.

Branners Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Wow. Would be pretty hard to have our cars look like that considering he wants to do it to a supra:p why link to pictures of race cars in your post then? Not a single Supra in those. Its personal choice, if somebody wants to do something to their Supra that in the eyes of some is seen as 'chav' then thats their choice. I personally hate bling on Supras, I also hate GT spoilers and dodgy coloured leather retrims. But if somebody chooses to do that I will simply say its not my bag and move on to ogling something that does take my fancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 why link to pictures of race cars in your post then? Not a single Supra in those. The reason i posted pics of the cars is that people were saying only chavs had race cars. And i think you will find there was 2 supras in there;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a purpose for my car, i want it to look good and if going fast, i want it to be in a straight line. I wouldn't want to test it on a track because i don't want to come off and waste it. It serves it's purpose just fine, i do not want to track it. However, we all want to clear our windscreens, it is essential, unlike tracking a car, which is not. A single wiper conversion won't do that. Quote: Originally Posted by Matt H Having a single wiper means it aint going to clean the windows properly. And how do you work that out? Because the window screen isn't shapped for a single conversion, and whatever that must be done to make it work like two wipers do, isn't available.

Guest blueangel Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 It doesnt really matter about it working aswell as the twin blades as its going to be a fair weather car anyway so not actually likely to see the rain to be honest, but i do want it to look good which i think they do and aslong as it cleans bugs off ill be happy:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
