    Default Moonroof wind deflector

    Just bought a GS3. Haven't picked it up yet. Is the wind deflector for the moonroof something I should get?

    Do you like the look?
    If so get it, if not don't.
    Since it is cosmetic only, your really the only one to decide if you think it is worth the money.....

    There's no functional benefit? It's strictly looks?

    It does reduce wind buffeting at speeds with the moon roof open. But not something that is significant so I agree, its mainly cosmetic

    unless you attach it on backwards, then you got yourself a roof scoop.

    Were you planning on a HP gain or added downforce from it?
