Looks much better IMO. Now, put your wipers back in the "retracted" position. You can do this by pulling them both down simultaneously toward the cowl. When snow gets packed up underneath them in the winter, they pop into the position you have, and need to be reset. It's covered in your owners manual too. Good luck.

wow that is a said story, u c those spinners draw the wrong crowd. peopel think they r the davins that go 4 10k easy but infact could b some spintech adapters that and cheap wheels that r really like 3500.00 total.
by the way i love the wheels and the way they look now with the spinners off, clean look , and like someone said not busy looking. but its still u'r choice. good luck...........next mod -drop the car .
