Yes they will cover it. I purchased 2nd hand with a cracked one from over-tightening. Swopped out no questions asked. But the big point I'd like to make is don't let anyone or anything other than yourself wash it! Get really good detailing gear, and spend a couple of hours doing it right. No-one will ever care for your car as much as you do (and you should to!). You can look at it afterwards with pride! And you get more of a workout yourself than playing xbox, ps3 etc
