Texas origin

Thanks. My car spent its first eight years in Houston, Texas before moving to NC for two years. It then spent two summers in Canada before I got it. I think this explains the sandblasted...

I have only had the bra for a short time, and it fits perfectly and was easy to remove and replace when I had the car washed and detailed. It only goes back on when both the bra and the car are...
