I don't think I've ever noticed any noise or vibration coming from the blades, but then again I never did a before/after comparison with the shade (the shade blocks out a surprising amount of noise) or sunroof open. I currently have my FatCats on there and those clearly are responsible for all the wind noise that I can hear coming from the roof. I'm pretty confident that once I take the FatCats off at the end of snowboarding season the noise will be imperceptible again.
