Default Clear wind deflector
Just saw this on eBay from the US. Pretty cool, I like it but close to $600 bucks to get it here, a bit steep.

Thanks for that, ooh look lighted as well

Bout the same price though if you factor in shipping and exchange rate.

I had Windrestrictor on my SLK55. Clear no light or engraving is like $350 for Jag. Was $240 on my Merc. He did a forum discount on the SLK site, maybe we can get them to join us and do the same. It is very nice. Still have the SLK one as I could not sell it on the forum.

I would be interested in a group buy - heck I will probably get it without a group buy....

Default DIY Clear Wind Deflector
I made my own.

I finished off the top with some side-molding you put on door edges to keep the doors from getting dinged.

Total material cost was less than $30.

Go to Windrestrictor own web site to see all options. I'll contact them about a forum discount, not based on group buy.

windrestrictor_usa hit me up on instagram, so they are looking for business. I am sure we can entice them to join and offer a forum introductory rate.

Just used "presale" and got 15% off. Ordered the basic clear as I had on my SLK55. Jag install much easier as Merc needed to be screwed in to a new bracket.

Which one looks better? Clear or etched/illuminated?

On the SLK forum etched and lit was by far the most popular, my basic was the exception.

I would personally be a little embarrassed driving around with a etched / lit version, to my mind its not very classy and reminds me of being a teenager when neons under the car were all the rage.
