That bit about taking the bra off when it rains is cool for Santa Barbara
boy, but what about those of us who live in the Northwest, a region often
cited for a preponderance of precipitation? Do we, too, take the bra off
with every rain? Or just not use one?

Jiminy Christmas, What kind of person puts a bra on a car and then leaves it
there for several years?????!!!
Kind of defeats the whole purpose of the bra, IMHO.
I love the look of a bra on the Vanagon, and I think it really helps keep
the front looking nice. I take mine off whenever it is raining, and every
time I wash the car, I pull the carpets and wash them and the bra with a
stiff brush and some Simple Green. I then apply a UV protectant to the
outside of the bra when I re install it.
