Wow...interesting concept. Would like to watch this one through completion.

Not a big fan of the single wiper but its very creative.

Interesting.... let's see where this one goes. Specifically how the ride height is going to be addressed...

No room for the original wiper location into the Z3 dash....

Thats pretty cool but I have a question, you have to remove the wiper arm to tilt the front forward?

Do not install those large wheels. Find something that suits the car - those five spokes look ridiculous in the small wheel arch.
