These were test fit on my RS and I can say that having seen the test fitted pieces in person, the proportions were pretty close to spot on. They're going to make some minor tweaks to them, but they will definitely not look out of place on the car at all unlike how I felt about the Baron ones.

It's great that there's still effort being put into good aftermarket products for our 10 year old cars!

How do you think the baron uprights look out of place? They are the best looking as they mimic the stock uprights just taller to get perfect visuals out of the rear window, the number one reason why they where developed.

What do you mean "the proportions were pretty close to spot on", compared to what, fitment? What is the height and AOA (angle of attack) of the blade with the new uprights, and is the AOA adjustable?

The tweaks will be ongoing as they are far from one dimensional planar surface. Post some pics, I am sure plenty of people are looking for options!

We all are supporters of Alex in this community. Personally I’d like to know more about who he is and what was used as a pattern to start his development.
