Ghey, i mean proper gay... its not like its a BBTC RS500!
Stick with the 2 wipers. Plus if you did go down the single wiper route you'll need to modify the scuttle panel otherwise it'll look camp gay!

If I'm honest I don't mind it. It's done its time now though and I just think standard wipers looks better.
