In two minds at the moment whether to get some wind deflectors for my lude, who's got some on theirs? Thoughts? From what I have read on posts from a while ago on here there is quite the divide on opinions so can only presume it will still be the same.
Just thinking colour wise, being blue, they would probably suit mine quite well

Personally I prefer them with deflectors. Mine are climair, a breeze to fit once you watch the youtube vid, the instructions that come with them are useless but once you watch the youtube vid will take you like 2 mins to fit, no clips or anything.

I've got an OEM set on my 4th gen, I think they look pretty good
Plus they add JDM points
It also means you can roll your window down slightly and you don't get the wind straight in your face, or if it's raining you can have the window open a crack and not get soaked. I used to leave my windows rolled down a bit when I left the car parked on hot days and the deflectors meant that people couldn't really see that the window was slightly ajar, which was quite handy too.

Personally the whole thing is anathema to me.
Do people apply ugly, useless bits of plastic to other favoured objects in their ownership?*
Wind and rain in the face? Oh JJ! And I thought you were so rugged!
(*Answer to rhetorical question: Yes, I suppose they sometimes do)

love it.
I think they do help. I have them on my van too. But I suppose because it's jdm it's the inn thing to have.
My old house mate said the same. They are ugly and spoil it. Same with the bonnet spoiler. But I like them.

Each to their own, I guess
And yours does remain one of the most covetable cars on here.
I'm not going to comment on the van.
Oh, alright then... your vag is very nicely trimmed and presented. And it's always clean.
(I'm so sorry)
