I think that for a modern car with clear coat, it doesn't matter so much. I think that the leaflet that came with my carbra had this standard disclaimer not to put it on a wet car, or leave it on a car that's wet. It didn't give any explanation - maybe so the water trapped underneath doesn't stain or mark the paint of older cars. Last time I had my car bra there was intermittent moderate rain, and underneath the car bra was bone dry when I removed it. I can't think of any other reason why they'd say not to have it on in the rain.

The Bra's from Car Bra Australia are much lighter with a tighter fit & have the advantage of not having the Bonnet Envelope with Velcro that always comes unstuck. They are much easier to fit or remove as you don't have to worry about fitting it around the Bonnet first. There is no difference in the quality of the stitching between the 2 products (I still have the Robco Bra for my old FD1 in the cupboard).

I have purchased and used Bra's from both companies extensively and base my opinion on personal experience. I also ordered a Bra from Robco for a relative's CU2 in Silver & niether of us were impressed with the fit, so when it came time for me to get 1 I had no hesitation in going to their opposition & to date am very happy I made that choice.
