Windows on a car would be stationary in relation to the car, so there's no reason they can't be a separate sub-object. It's moving parts like fins that cause trouble. If they are separate objects, then there will be an awkward area where they meet the body. Until recently, CG humans always had this unrealistic area around shoulders, elbows, hips - any joints. One object would simply flow into another with no stretching or compressing of the skin. The latest efforts seem to be one-piece objects, but they don't need transparent fins at the end of those arms.
