Do you have a roof spoiler or rear mudflaps?

Maybe Im' just picky but.....

it's been raining an awful lot here in vancouver and I've noticed that the rear window gets covered in water/mist very quickly....

is this an issue with anyone elses too?

I wonder if it can be remedied by adding a roof spoiler (to direct the air flow differently?)

Or maybe adding rear mudflaps? (to reduce the amount of spray the rear wheels kick up???)

I'd be happy if the rear wiper was intermittend, not always on....

I've got a bigger spoiler than those on the USDM Sport Fit and it only helps a little.

You're best bet is to put on rear mud flaps. I've got a set but haven't had time to fit them on.

My only concern with mudflaps in general is that over time they tend to rub/wear away at the paint leading to rust problems in that area.... I am considering taking off my front ones for this reason.

I have honda mud flaps and the sport spoiler but it does not help.... It is the nature of the design... It is not as bad looking on the silver. good luck...

I have new Sport with the stock spoiler. I had the same problem until I applied RainX. It cuts water sitting the rear window tenfold. It's cheap and it rules. The more it rains the better it works.
