Sunroof deflectors: Yay or nay ?
My friend broke mine accidently a week ago. At first I was mad and wanted a new one, but everyone is sayin it looks better with it off. I'm kinda likin it now, more aerodynamic. How would these cost from a local Nissan dealer anyways ? Even if I don't get a new one, he still gotta fork over the greens 
. Opinions ?

Kev, that crease will hopefully go away with several good washes.

well, they cost about 45-60$ new from Nissan 
I bought mine for like 50$ from the dealer. Back then I really wanted one because the car looked so naked, now I wouldn't buy it if i was in that position again.. After seeing other cars without them, it looks really good without it... I will probably take it off some day and tint the sunroof, it looks so much nicer when it's just tilted up a little 
BTW, the ones they have on Ebay? are probably the ones like they got in Pepboys or autozone, they are the ones with the 3mm tape which you just stick on your roof and probably will never take it off.. I had this thing on my old max, it didn't look as good as a OEM one.

Courtesy
Mention Max.org through Courtesy, get 25% off, should be about $35.
That's what I did, but I'm local so no shipping.
I like the look better with the deflector off, but it makes a HUGE difference in how much you get blown around in the cabin and noise, so I'm not sure I could live without it now.
I'll probably take it off when it gets warm again to see. But no way I want that cold-a$$ wind in my car right now.

I know they make the car quiet when the roof is open, what about when its close? does it make more noise because that thing is hitting the wind now?

its hitting the wind the whole time whether the roof is open or closed.

I guess the beauty of it is that you can always take it down if you don't like the looks.
