Default The little spoiler thingy on the wiper blade.

Anyone know what it's called? Part number even? I'm talking about the curved piece that redirects airflow over the wiperblade assembly. It is attached to the blade assembly.

Thanks in advance.

No that's a different bit altogether, that's the part the blades and arms sit in behind. The bit I'm talking about is on the arms themselves. Thanks though.

It is basicly just a small airfoil to help keep the wiper pressed against the windshield at speed. Don't know the part # but a call to your audi dealer would give it to you!

I've always had to get these wipers from a motor factor and these airfoils came already attached. Don't think they come separate from the wiper arm
