A question for those with splitters, diffusers, roof spoilers etc

Are you still able to take your car thru an automatic car wash? Has anyone had any problems with this stuff coming off?

Thanks

I have a front splitter and rear diffuser. No problem with 15+ autobell passes.

I only hand wash with quality soap. I'd worry if your parts aren't painted that the harsh chemicals used at car washes may stain or fade the parts. Not sure but I'd worry about it maybe someone else can offer their opinions.
At any rate I wouldn't suggest using the automatic car washes, for a multitude of reasons.

This car is my daily, it's not a showcar. I want to hear from some more people if this stuff will be a problem thru car washes. I tow a jetski with it, go to the beach with it, go thru the car wash with it.
