Need opinions on rear glass swap!!!
Ok heres the deal. I had my 01 shipped from CA to NC using a transport company. Well the retard of a driver droped one of the ramps on my back glass and hatch.
I had my spoiler off so it dented my hatch and busted the glass. The ? i have is a guy i work with sold me a jdm itr hatch w/ glass for $100 and i like the no wiper concept, but dont want to ruin its oem integrity. The trucking company's insurance is paying for all the damages, $2400, but I just would like some other opinions. Any feedback is appreciated. By the way, my car is 100% stock besides motor work.

I personally would go with the wiper delete only because i live in sunny southern california and hardly use the wiper. Considering you live in an area that sees rain you might actually benefit from a rear wiper although even in rain, water usually sheets right off. Either way you can't go wrong, you can always delete the rear wiper later if you so decide.

Sounds the best to me... I have used my rear wiper once.... To get bird crap off the rear window.

In the two years I owned my rear wiper assembly I used it a grand total of twice. I would throw the JDM rear hatch on and get it painted. I would use the remainder of the money on some rain-x and whatever mod you seem fit. I'd call it a good day after that

There are a few yellow hatches on car-part.com right now, one is in Ca. If you could pick one up in excellent condition it might be a good option. No painting necessary that way. Anyone here have a CF hatch and want to sell their PY one?
