Nice, more full-car shots ;)

Also curious, do you ever take the bra off to let it dry underneath? Things turn nasty if you don't...

yeah, I usually remove it when I wash the car. (at least once a month) its a pain in the rear, but like you said, things don't go well if you don't.

I had the cover when I bought the car, did't install it until this past year after I noticed the beating my front end was getting from road debris. I drive a lot of highyway miles and the rock chips were winning the battle against my bumper.

I showed him the thread lol, he said he wasn't crying, he said he was just glum cause he wasn't making shots.

I don't know where he picked up "glum". I didnt know anyone used that word anymore.


S'ok Tito, a big bowl of ice cream from me topped with m&m's fixed all his sorrows.
