I tried one out also. It looks hideous, but actually does a decent job of stopping the buffeting when the top is down. Nice that you don't have to remove it to put the top up either. I also have a Vette Net and I think the cheaper one does a better job.

Personally I don't think either of the wind deflectors for the C5 Convertible that I've tried do enough to justify the a) Appearance b) Ease of top operation c) Lack of true wind reduction. I have an Oris Windstop on my 4th gen Camaro Convertible and it works way better than the ones for the C5, and it looks sharp to boot! I haven't found anything about the one for the Camaro that I do not like, but the ones for the C5 all have compromises that must be made.
