yes and it looks ghey. i havent seen anyone pull off painted arms and i highyl doubt u will. I just repainted mine semi gloss black and walah.. not like wipers need any sort of attention drawn to them cuz there is no reason to say "oo look at my wipers" There just like everyone elses.. stock.. and have no performance.. there just their to make sure u can see when its raining.. id remove em if i didnt need em too..

I beg to differ.....

i painted mine to match, but of course my car is white, so its not actually a color.... but in my opinion it looks factory, cause you really dont notice it.

I think if they were paint matched to the car they'd look better then stock. That way they'd have a shine to the. Would look cool.

Black for wiper arms is good=oem, color matched would be pretty sweet as well, but a different color then your car would be kind of tacky imo; but to each their own.
Now on the other hand i have my wipers them selves paintted color match(the frame of the wiper blade that is) looks pretty good.

I think they would look great wrapped in carbon fiber, with a carbon fiber hood.

I saw that on a RX-7 at a car show, and it looked completely sick.

thats just it, as long as you dont paint them a different color than the car, they usually look pretty good

Then you are one step ahead of the none black cars; you dont have to match your door handles, mirrors or wiper arms, tint works great for you guys and all that; having a black car you have less to get paintted, even your trunk bezel is black; unless you repaint with a gloss black then you have just as much work to do as us without black cars.
