Here's my car at the moment! OE accessory car cover, and sitting on top of several tarps in my backyard!

it never stops in the middle.
so how did your friend make the centre wiper stop if it took 10 minutes to do the mod?
it looks cool on a car with single wiper, it gives flasbacks to the 90's era of the DTM race cars

No, it doesn't bother me. I spend most of my time looking straight ahead while driving and it's obviously not directly in front of me. I notice it when I do look to the right a bit, but after a while, you tend to ignore/forget it's even there. I mean, you're talking about something that's about an inch or less wide; it's not a big visual obstacle.
I've had friends drive my car (for the first time) and they even said they didn't find it bothersome/notice it, and they were the ones who mentioned it would be annoying!

I guess you are used to it's new place now and it doesn't bother you at all.
You think it's a cool mod worth doing it?

Yeah, I definitely think it's worth doing. Not many cars have a monowiper (uniwiper?), let alone DTM-style. The only production cars that have a monowiper parked vertically (at least stock) are Koenigseggs, to my knowledge. It definitely turns heads, especially in a black sedan that grumbles.

By no means do I think that the wiper parked vertically would be a visual obstruction, I just think it might be a little over the top for a DD.

) I think there is too much of a gap at the top and bottom with the 4 slat grille

i like the wider slats. lately ive been thinking my 5 slat grill insert doesnt look good. too many shiny surfaces. i personally think the 4 looks better bc there is less "chrome" and more black space.
