Might be crazy, sunroof deflector

Ok, so I've tinted the windows, painted the front grill, and put the rear roof spoiler on the car. The side profile is amazing - I'm still debating a slight drop, but after a wash today I'm staring at the front of the car thinking this needs something. Its just a little too plain, so it hits me...sunroof deflector!!

What do you guys think, is this a crazy idea? Anyone added one to a 4G? If someone made one or had a great design I think I'd give it a whirl, just googling some images of other cars I think they can add to the look and not detract like some other exterior mods

I don't have a lot of mods on mine and it does reduce airflow into the cabin when cruising. A few weekends ago a female passenger made the comment it looks nice and kept her hair from flying all over the place while enjoying the sun and fresh air. Current ride and former ride.

^^ sorry but no joy rides in my car..

dont even remember the last time i opened the sunroof lol.. maybe popped it open... but it has been a long time since i opened it up all the way..

it looks ugly, leaves a mark on your car, and it is challenging to clean..

Adds an unflatteringly hump to the car and destroys the smooth lines. IMO.

Those things trap to much water when you wash your car and water is running out all over your car. plus it leaves a mark on the paint.
