Depends on the state when it comes to ilegal. I'm sure you can have them on during day time.. well, not if it rains lol
but night time, I'm sure they are illegal anywhere.
And yes you can leave them on when you wash your car. It's a hard plastic cover

I lost a cover on my old mustang when i took it thru a car wash. But they were the ones that were held on by velcro they didnt 'snap' on. But i live in a apt. so i have to go to car wash places so i had to get rid of them.

Those GTS ones fit the same way as the Lund covers. You can wash the car with them on, but water spots might form under the covers.

And yes, they are technically illegal for on-road use in most states, even during the day. The good thing with these, over tint, is that you just tell the cop you had them on for a show and forgot. Then take them off right then. They block so much light that you need to remove them for night driving anywhere that doesn't have bright street lighting, like out in the country.
