There was some recent interest in a group buy on PIAA Silicone Wipers.

I am in discussion with a possible supplier for these, and need firm numbers to finalise the price.

I had a set of these of my IS200, and was really impressed, and I want a set for the GS now - hence the group buy cool.gif

Link to PIAA website for details on wipers

Now, for the first time ever, PlAA offers a new clarity of vision - the Super Silicone Wiper Blade. From the initial design process to extensive laboratory testing under the harshest conditions, this blade outperforms every other blade currently on the market:

    *The Super Silicone Wiper Blade secures a wider field of vision in inclement weather, ensuring greater visibility.

    *The Super Silicone Wiper Blade offers better resistance to all climates - heat, ozone, ultra-violet, and wear - clearly outperforming the industry standard.

    *Super Silicone coating elimates squeak and reduces drag, regardless of the shape of the windshield, providing greater comfort for both driver and passenger.

    *The Super Silicone Wiper Blade maintains a sharp, clean edge, even after 230,000 operations.As you can see, PIAA has engineered unparalleled effectiveness and streamlined operation into every blade - qualities that ensure superior performance.


Sizes required are

IS200 (00-)1 x 18" & 1 x 20"
GS300 (93-97) 1 x 19" & 1 x 21"
GS300 (98-) 1 x 20" & 1 x 24"

The 19" and above wipers are available as both standard wipers, and "Super Sporza", which has a leightweight, U/V resistant spoiler. They are available in flat black or carbon look.
Super Sporza


The 18" wipers are only available without the spoiler, and can be flat black, carbon look or curved.


Prices are to be confirmed - this is why I need interest.

However, heres a rough indication.

Standard (per blade)

18" / 19" / 20" / 21" / 24" Black - £12.50
18" / 19" / 20" / 21" / 24" Carbon Look - £15
18" / 19" / 20" / 21" Curved - £14

NB - 24" are not available as curved


Super Sporza (per blade)

19" / 20" / 21" / 24" - Black £16.50
19" / 20" / 21" / 24" - Carbon Look £19

postage will need to be added to these costs.

Can I get some feedback as to who wants these?


Number of people, and who wants what would be great - I can go back to the supplier then and try and get the best deal wink.gif


I will be ending this Sunday, 17/10/2004.

Matt, I'm definitely interested mate, but the post says that the 19" are available as Super Sporza then says that 18" are listed in the prices as available in that finish - which is right mate?

But basically, I'm up for 2 pairs of carbon finish wipers, not sure whether Super Sporza or not - I want both the same you see please mate smile.gif

Thanks
Wosket
i can recommend these wipers, i got some last year and they do make a difference, especially with the little PIAA wipe you get to give your windscreen a coating. they werent very expensive either, not sure where i got them from now unsure.gif

you want 2 pairs - 4 blades in all?

Thanks for clearing that up Matt!

So please can I have the following:

2 x Standard 18" Carbon Look @ £30
2 x Standard 20" Carbon Look @ £30

£60 total smile.gif

Think that's better, or do you IS guys have one normal and one Sporza with the grille? I could do with the grille to be honest as my wipers flap about in the wind when I'm travelling faster than I should! Need new metal wiper arms as well as mine are rusty, thanks for reminding me Matt!

can't bear to be left out eh mate? rolleyes.gif

updated your choice wink.gif


have spoken to the supplier, and we can get an extra 5% discount for this volume cool.gif


Can save on shipping if we have one large delivery from the supplier, and then ship on.

What do you want to do guys?

Have them delivered direct from the supplier (think its £6.75 when I was looking the other day).

Or have them shipped to me, and then pay me the extra for the shipping costs?
SHAHZ
What ever is better for you i would say mate...its your choice smile.gif

but that will add £6.75 to the cost of your blades.
