    Hey Guys!

    One of my pet peeves are black replacement Wiper Blades on classic cars that originally came with Chrome ones.

    Both my 1980 LeBarons were this way when I bought them. Sure enough, when I went to buy replacements only black ones were sold.

    The first thing I did was to buy a pair of black ones and spray paint them Silver. Better, but still not right. So I got online and did some research. Turns out that one major Blade company makes a Chrome replacement blade. Most auto parts stores don't carry them, but they can order them for you. Ask for TRICO "Classic" replacements.

    I ordered two pair for my Chryslers. MUCH better! A nice quick and easy finishing touch for our classic cars that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
