Flat black wiper arms
Has anyone ever found flat black wiper arms/wipers? I get a lot of glare off my chrome ones; maybe I could paint them flat with a little prep?

Re: Flat black wiper arms
Are yours chrome... or stainless.
If chrome, or highly polished stainless... I'd like to work out a swap. |

Paint it Black!
If your chrom is in great shape I would get a cheap set to paint up. sand and paint. three light coats should do it

Re: Flat black wiper arms
I was going to suggest powder coating them flat black. But the flat that I’ve seen isn’t UV resistant and will look like crap in no time.

Re: Flat black wiper arms
I'd stick with chrome (stainless) if you want to keep it stock. My 67 had black wipers when I got it and was glad to find retro chrome style wiper blades at NAPA.
