I thought I saw a Wiper Cowl for the C3's listed somewhere. This would be a piece (probably black ABS plastic) that fits inside the engine compartment and hides the ugly wiper arms. I've looked in Mid America's / Corvette America's catalog and can't seem to find it. Has anyone come across these before?

They can be painted to match, or left black. Use velcro, or screws.

Thanks guys, anyone ever used one? Are they worth a damn or are they just cheapo plastic that looks like crap

I got mine at Midamerica. It's okay.

Haven't installed it yet but I will. Looks okay but nothing to write home about. If you need something else more, I'd spend the money elsewhere. On the other hand, it does look like it'll keep the junk out of the tray so..I dunno. I'll put mine on after I get the car painted.
