Default What's an Aero wiper?

Since I'm asking that question, I'm thinking the answer is going to be no.

Default The type of wiper that has a "spoiler" . . .

. . . which is used to force the wiper down into the winshield at high speed as air flows over the "spoiler" surface.

Default The one piece Bosch Icon Blades work great

They were stock on my '04 VW R32 and are available at your FLAPS with a mount to fit regular wiper arms. (My VW has a great quick mount so the OEM ones won't fit a car that that didn't come with them; I wish everyone would standardize.) They have a built in airfoil as well.
