I really only heard the wind around 50mph on my A91-CF. My A90 was brutal at many speeds like everyone has experienced. I have the mirror triangles with the 3 small fins on both of my cars and they work well and don’t look bad either.

I had it in my 23 but I was much less dramatic than everyone had made it out to be. I just slapped on the AMS gloss black and noticed a large improvement.

Guys - buy this, cut it to size and stick it on - matches perfect and you never will remember its there. It fixes the issue and I have it on my car.
~ I started with this route (photo below) but was less than impressed… still buffeting at certain speeds.

I'm going to add some of those little vortex generator shark fins to the A pillar, should fix it.

You have nothing breaking up the airflow from that flat pillar, so anything to disrupt it should do the trick.

If you want to experience true wind buffeting....drive a Chevrolet Blackhawk....AKA Volt..any year. One of the best cars I've ever owned, but they are ready for liftoff from the factory. ?

Shout out for this simple fix. Installed these and have had no issues with the dreaded Toyota wind thump. Super easy installation that matches perfectly with the gloss black finish of the installation area.
My experience has been these don't work well at higher speeds (100mph+), just FYI.

I'm not a 100% sure but I guess it has to do with the place ur driving in. if its a crammed space more buffeting. But I do get what your saying I have a 2022 and sometimes I cruise up to 60 or 70 without and issue and sometimes at 50 it starts

I have a 2023 premium and there is very little buffeting at almost any speed. At least no more than my CRV daily. I had already bought the little cheap triangles to put on but don’t think I need them. I don’t have the carbon caps on the mirrors so maybe something different there.
