This would be a good part for one of the billet companies to produce.

Leave your wipers on, that was one of the dumbest things I ever did to my car was shave the wipers.

I'm not a 100% sure, but way back when I do believe we used to use these when we removed our wipers to plug the holes on our Camaros. Scuff them and paint to match

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

I have done the same thing. My wipers are in the trunk in case i get caught
in a shower, but usually only drive it in good weather. I sure like not having
to look through the wipers when driving as well as the car looks better without them on.
I got some plastic black caps at the local ACE hardware store for .99
They fit perfectly and will slip off when needed.
I forgot what they are called but should be easy to find.
