The Amazon site says shipping of 2-4 weeks, so they could "legally" mail them to me in June. If I get them in time, I may attempt registered mail to see if I can trick them into thinking I mean business on my rebate (too tired to put up a real fight).

When I get the wipers, it will be a simple matter of doing before/after tuft tests with pictures (I like tuft tests I can see from inside the car).

If it's a scam, I'll just go to the store and buy another type of bracketless wiper and then I'll post here about how they work. I'll leave the testing of aerodynamics to someone else.
