Talking Wiper delete
I finally got rid of the rear wiper! I don't care what anyone SAYS that was useless for me at least. It now has a clean look. I called Bumper plugs but they ONLY make it for the(996) so I had a custom shop make one.Here are some pics and a few other little Mods.

1-2.custom wiper plug.
3.Bumper plug key hole plug.
4.Max speed Gas cap (solid-Aluminum) not plastic.

Good call! A 911 definitely doesn't need a rear wiper.

Never had one on my 997. Spec-ed it without rear wipers. First thing I did when I got my 930 Turbo was rear wiper delete.

Paul I am sure you can find an elastic grommet to match the hole. Must be T-shaped so it covers the whole hole, and leave some space all around. Silicone it well on the glass, should work...

If anything it alters the aerodynamics of the 911 as the air flows over the roof line.
