Looks like 8 lock-in points that adhere to the window plus 2 tabs along the bottom edge.

I think @Dadhawk was hoping for these. I know i'm going to have to seriously consider these. I love them.

Oh, heck yes, although I do like the 10 blade better than the 8 blade.

Looking closely at the pictures, I wonder if its not a (relative) quick-disconnect at the mounting points? If you zoom in, they appear to be made to turn easily. Sadly, it does not look like it is hinged.

I see no purpose in this.

Air turbulance slowing the car down.
Debris trap.
Difficulty in cleaning window.
Much more expensive than tint.
Expensive.
Ugly.

It's probably just for looks.

Also, I hate your sig. It annoys me.

Ceberus is a necessary hero - keeps them in and you out (unless you belong there).

Awesome a factory branded excuse for when people back into things.

Chee-Hu · 01-10-2014, 02:50 PM

$900 could be spent somewhere else that is absolutely more useful.

cyde01 · 01-10-2014, 07:06 PM

the production version looks... more tacky. and $900 is a lot.

empower-auto · 01-11-2014, 01:34 PM

Glad you goobers hate it because - I don't care, I love it. Will be buying, $900 or not.

Dadhawk · 01-11-2014, 08:19 PM

I'm sort of up in the air the more I look at them. The prototype one I would have bought immediately, real life unseen. The production one I believe I'll have to see in person, which of course will be difficult.

cyde01 · 01-11-2014, 08:33 PM

I know this is a pretty fast about face, but they're starting to grow on me. still, $900...

kALMIGHTY · 01-11-2014, 08:39 PM

I'll wait until someone makes a replica, but even the 7 blades are growing on me now...

Remember how Subaru was charging almost $700 for their rear "diffuser" and now you can get the exact same things for less than a $100 on eBay? Yeah...
