I just crack the moon roof into the slightly raised position, increases body hole size and kills the rushing over worn seals. No need for a deflector then. Though my car has previously had a deflector which has trashed the paint, so i'm tempted to return to it just to hide the damage!Philip Chidlow wrote:Sunroof deflectors look crap but work.

Re: 16v on C&C
I'm on the fence with Morrettes - nicely colour coded they're not too bad, and at least they look better than GS ones
I can see the point of the various wind deflectors if they work, but don't like the look of them (although oddly the door ones look right on Todd's break)
Tailblazers I do like, but have to be on the right car - my TGE had the all red one, which looked right with the Delage Red colour. Others clash horribly.
Alloys - After market alloys only look right if they are from the same period of the car, and match the styling. Factory alloys are good, but I wouldn't hunt a set out for a car, simply because I prefer the greater strength, and the ability to beat them back to shape, of the steel wheels. Some of the BX wheel trims are cool too.

Re: 16v on C&C
I have a suitable spare rear bumper if anyone buys this car.
