Default 2016 ES350 Grille

The grille on the new 2016 ES350 seems to me to be somewhat flimsy. I'm wondering how it holds up in the automatic car washes that aren't brushless.

Spring summer and fall I always hand wash my cars, but in the winter I have no choice but to use auto car washes.

Any thoughts on it's durability.

Thanks!

Don't use an automatic carwash that has brushes, period. Those brushes and other wipes are rarely changed and are covered in grit that tears up your paint. Either use a brushless one or don't use one at all.
