Of course, the wings went away mostly because they were so easy for thieves to pop and then reach in to unlock the car. Remember when door locks were flared at the ends? That ole coat hanger made unlocking the door pretty easy.
 
Sure glad we have those features so that cars don't get stolen any more.

I tilt the sunroof up so that it doesn't let in water. But like I had said in my previous post, the window visors and sunroof deflector are there more for looks. They just add a little extra to the car and if it prevents a little rain from coming in all the more better. I am still debating on whether or not to get the bra. First I don't know if it would look good (as you may have already noticed, owning and driving a car to me is about looks, I'm not going to spend that much money on something that doesn't look good!) and secondly I know that it would stop some rocks and bugs from hitting the front of the car but other than that I know nothing about them.

Huh? Water can still come in the backside of the tilt.

I guess we differ here; I wouldn't add the visors because I feel they take away from the looks of the car; interrupting the design lines, especially the roofline.

The moonroof visors are a complete waste, IMO. It does not quiet the wind noise much at all (only up to about 60mph). It doesn't help the looks, and makes it harder to clean that area. It will only stop rain from getting in if you open the roof just a little, and if you never hit the brakes. After water gets under the visor, wind cannot blow the water off, so you have to wait until the water dries up on it's own before you can open the roof without water coming in on you. I made the mistake of buying a visor for my old car, but I didn't make the same mistake twice.

No one has written in here for a year so this seems like a good place for my 1000th post!

Only if you had waited until July 28. The policy is 12 months or 1000th post, whichever comes first

New Alabaster Silver Accord EX V-6 member here. As reflected by my username, I formerly drove an 07 VW GTI but decided to turn it in for something a little more practical and maybe a little more economical and definitely roomier! I do a lot of cycling and with the bike and the rest of my gear in that G, it got mighty mighty cramped sometime. Plus, I didn't feel the Gs were all they were cracked up to be so hopefully I bought a car that'll live up to its reputation of longevity and reliability. I just picked the car up Friday (7.11) and thankfully the VCM hasn't been as noticeable as I'd feared - actually it's not bad at all. I trust it won't become anymore so though I haven't gone up any mountains here in Western PA yet.
 
I should say I have a dry sense of humor (once described as the Sahara Desert) so keep that in mind in my future posts. Hope these emoticon thingeys work well at conveying the true sentiment.
 
Look forward to your words of experience.
