Re: Wind deflectors

It is bound to work.

A friend with a Boxster ticked one from the options lists and the difference, with/without is significant. Shame the road/tyre noise on a Boxster is so bad, oh and the posers badge.

I am only at chassis stage but plan to fit one later. I guess they have to be toughened glass, polycarbonate will scratch and fade.

Anyone else have any experience of them?

Re: Wind deflectors

One problem, they work best if you wind the windows up, which I guess is a problem.

Re: Wind deflectors

Sorry guys,

But that looks pants! If you don't like the wind and noise sell the Cobra and buy a tin top.

Have you driven a Cobra much :drive: :drive:

I have done over 21,000 miles in the 4 years mine has been on the road and I love driving it but as far as I am concerned a wind break is fab when doing a lot of mileage I don't particularly like the look of glass of perspex ones but each to his own.
