Default CoverKing, good or bad??

I ordered a front end mask from CoverKing before I saw all the bad reviews on Yelp. I'm hoping only the worse cases search out Yelp to complain and there are lots of satisfied customers out there, Any on here??? I ordered the bra but most complaints were on seat covers...
Thanks, Dick

I had a Bra on my C5 1999 Pewter FRC. It was a GM version I think, I know it cost a lot and fit very well.
The main problems were with the use of the Bra itself.
If it rained I could not leave it on due to Water Spots from water underneath, it did not breathe so water was trapped. If it was warm weather the water would remain for a long time leaving images on the paint. This may have had something to due with the Pewter Color.
Since I live on the shore of Long Island in NY I was hoping for Protection from sand driven by Highway drives. There would just be a mark where the sand got underneath no major issues but I was always taking it off to Polish underneath. That in itself was a Pain to reinstall. I seemed to be always removing it to dry it off.
I ended up just giving it a way after very little use.

I've read a few topics about bras, and most of them mention the same issues as Barrier. I've seen quite a few recommendations for the clear sealant instead of a bra.
