I had all of that in mind when I designed mine. I use this car as my daily driver, so whatever aeromods I install on my car have to withstand all of the perils of year around driving, be it snow, traffic, washboard dirt roads, etc. It has held up to 3 years and over 100,000 miles of driving so far.
