      How extensive of an upgrade are we talking here? Are you getting backing plates with flex-tubing to run up to the front scoops (like the racecar guys)? If it is something this hardcore and you're worried about piping too much rain water to the discs, just disconnect the tubing and secure it to the car.

      If what you have in store is anything less than what I described above, you shouldn't have any concerns. Just do your best to avoid areas of standing water and you'll be ok.

          I just don't connect my brake ducts unless I'm going to the track.
