Pep Boys. I purchased the Rain X wipers for about $25 for both and they work really well.

I'm using Bosch Icon, the best wipers I've ever used... and also the most expensive at $40/pair.

I have the Bosch Icon wipers and i have to say they're pretty sick looking the only downside is the $40+ price tag for the pair

that's ridiculous for wipers, they're made out of rubber, rubber deteriorates and must be replaced at set intervals

buy the rubber ones...

"OEM replacements" and replace them every 6 months or less, you could replace them 4 times at the same cost of something like Bosch Icons

they're wipers for crying out loud, put the money towards a more tangible mod on your car and just put RainX wiper fluid in your fluid tank for $5.00

also, PPG Aquapel is a much, MUCH better product than RainX itself if you wanted to go that route:
