Default Wiper airfoil

Is the drivers side wiper airfoil important?

Is someone running without one?

I noticed this on the 08 I picked up last weekend but can't remember if
it was on the 05 I traded in
Guess it wasn't that important to me, but I'm sure it won't hurt.
Why do you ask ?

I changed the Whole wiper arm to Bosch instead of just the rubber. The car hasn't taken off yet, so I guess it's fine without it.
OH I did keep it in a box in the garage in case Jetstream buys my car and wants all the factory parts.....

Without the wiper spoiler, the wiper may lift off the glass at 80 mph +.

Just curious...I don't like to change fillers, I perfer to change the whole blade.

I just put on of those solid rainx wipers on my F150 and it works great...probably the best blade I've ever used.
