Did a little touch up in the car... *pics*

My Wiperblade arms had some chipping paint and it looked like shit... So I decided to touch them up... Follow the pics through the process...

Wow, I was gonna say fuck it and buy a new wiper arm, but I think I'll just do this.

[vdubstreets]

i defintaly need to do that soon. did you sand it down at all before you painted it? and was it a PIA to get them off, i saw a few threads of people complaining about taking them off.

[FrostofSparta]

What I did was sand all the flaking off paint so it was all smooth... Sanded the old paint a bit for the new paint to stick, took the blade off and did the whole arm. If you look close you can see a lip where the new paint meets the old paint... But you have to look close. With the Bare metal gone it look 100% better so I can't complain

i just got new aero wipers...my drivers side was the same..

[ewytt]

weird. I had the same damage to mine but i just replaced it at the dealer.

[FrostofSparta]

Seems like the Paint they used on the Wiper arms doesn't hold up very well... I saved my self at least 80 bucks for new arms and it looks good.

My dad's driverside arm is peeling in the same spot.

Mine better not do that but if it does aero upgrade for sure.
