You taking the piss, I'm sure they are Masitaly VT7s 17" and I think you should keep the wiper on as it doesn't look right without it.

when i used to drive my old man's car, i had this habit of using my rear wiper to wave to people when i was pulling in front of them lol!

Other than that I think yuo should remove it, go for that extra clean look.

undastanding now.

ok red, what if the grommet fell out during driving causing an uneven pressure balance in your cabin causing you and contents to be sucked out?
