Default Colored wipers

I'm looking to get a pair of white colored double-bladed windshield wipers. Can someone recommend a good company to order from? Or a good brand to look out for? I need something where form fits function [pretty color + good wiper....northeast weather demands a good wiper].

Please think about that before you do it. First the wiper blades, next thing you know, your Nissan badge will be replaced with a Honda badge.

The windsheild washer nozzles are in the blade assembly.
Does not make any sense destroying a good setup.

A good quote: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"

This post has got to be bogus. Nobody in their right mind would do something that retarded.

Im not pushing him to do it... Im simply saying do what you want...

He never asked what we thought of it... he asked where he can get it... so who are we to tell him what we don't like

I, personally, would never do it... but he asked where he can get them...i simply suggested a way to get it accomplished... some of u guys are too judgemental...

Yes, these are a must. Everytime I see a honda at night with those 2 blue lights on their wiper blades I know that they must have a turbo or at least a supercharger under the hood....

First and foremost, I would say don't do it. But technically speaking, double blades don't do as well as single blades. two blades reduces the overall surface area pressure applied to the window. You would have to change the wiper arm spring to compensate for this.

Just my .02 cents.
