judging by how slow Jason (sooner is), I'd say they subtract at least 20whp

I had all 3 of these on my car at once. It was overkill and looked kinda stupid, so I took off the rear window spoiler. I couldn't deal w/o the sunroof deflector or window deflectors.

I used "ventshade" on my car. What is nice about them is they fit in the window channel, not taped to the outside of the door frame. With the color of my car they don't stick out to much and look almost OEM. They cost a little more but worth it to me. Edit... I also have a moonroof shade too.

i think it would look nice on your car color, a guy over here had them and it looked sick, although he painted the rear window spoiler which made it 100x nicer.

but now i look again and he added a chrome liner to the window vents, horrible looking but before that it was nicey-nice

does the sunroof deflector really help with the wind noise that much?

The only thing I can think of is if you want to have your windows cracked but don't want to worry about rain, I guess. I think you sacrifice a lot to have them though. They're not for me, that's for sure.

i had the sunroof visor and vent visors. i've removed both of them, but now i have a wear line in front of my sunroof from the visor and tape stuck all over my chrome trim from the vent visors. car looks SO much cleaner with both removed, but it's a serious project to clean up everything after you remove them.

If anyone wants, I have a 4pc set from ventshade (they do not attach inside) that I am willing to sell for $25 (they retail for $50). I received these as a gift but decided not to use them and they're just sitting in my closet, in the box unopened. Anyone want them, hit me up. NYC peeps I'll deliver them to you. I'll ship them anywhere else for an extra $5.

To me the sunroof wind deflector is more cosmetic than anything else. I have driven mine w/o it and it produces the same noise...
