I say if you're a smoker and need to have the window cracked go for it...... I personally am a smoker but I don't smoke inside my car.....I love the smell of the leather over the smell of the cigarette.....
I think they look better on suv's over sedans.....
They work great....I have them on my trailblazer and it really helps to keep it cool in the summer by having all four windows cracked

You don't see BMW or Mercedes with these "protrusions" on them. Whatever they may actually be called, that's what they are. If you don't smoke, why mess up the quality look? Gives the car a cheaper look no doubt. Takes away the luxury aspect of it and makes it just look like another sporty car with mods on it!

They don't look THAT bad. I live in the Pacific Northwest with our 9 months of rain, so those things are pretty common. I may even get some if they aren't too bulgy.

I can't stand any crap added to the windows that takes away from the
body lines. I smoke, but would rather wait until I stop somewhere if its raining.
But I am not a CHAIN smoker, so I can wait.
I HATE pinstripes, white lettered tires, MOST 100% chrome wheels, or ANY added
chrome, like door edge guards. YUK. SHIT. Last time I add to this thread. Your
welcome. WOW. Just go get the OEM ones if you MUST. Its YOUR CAR...........

He just ask you a simple question. You like or dislike. You want to make your car faster why not just go with Porche or at least S2000. Why buy TL and put a supercharger etc..? <<Is this stupid? YOu can't just compare oranges to apples. Now, you can say why don't you buy a Civic to save gas. That make sense to me.
Further, Alot of ppl think putting rain guard is stupid. I bet you guys don't even read manual and starting to ask questions. THat is call stupid. We are here to help each other, personal opion can be express but do not put others opinion down. Thank you!
