I really am contemplating doing it, but there are times when I really, really need my rear windshield wiper for those fat rains.

The only problem with my xB is now my stock wiper does not match the back of the box ever since I added the chrome Rumion tailgate garnish. I'm still contemplating how to make it work.

@xB Cracker: Yeeah baby! I'm getting my dual exhaust at the end of this year. Next year I'm contemplating going turbo. What I might do is have the transmission rebuilt and go manual instead of being automatic. That way I can get even higher whp. Thinking about Descendant's V2 kit. But I still need to do my research.

THEN STOP MODDING NOW!!! If that is what your goal is for the xB, then return your xB to stock, sell it, then find a manual xB. You will be less stressed, time and money ahead.

You know what's funny, I actually contemplated that. I was thinking of a chrome wiper, but then I think it'd be too much chrome in the back. The stock wiper is really p!ssing me off for this reason. I should just delete it.

I think for the stress factor, this would be a good idea. But for monetary reasons, it would be an unwise decision. It would be more cost-effective for me to eat the stress and convert my automatic xB to manual. I have about 15,000 left on my loan and I'd have to find a buyer willing to pay that much for it, you know?

Again, I'm still thinking about this whole process, because I know it will be a big, big investment in moving my xB to turbo and converting the transmission. Which is why I'm holding off from performance mods, apart from a dual exhaust.
