Since I started keeping my windows up at higher speeds, the problem has not come back. I also drive my car year round and the fabric is still in good shape after 3 years.
Thanks for the thoughts.

When you refer to buffeting with the windows down, are you referring to having the top down or up in that situation? Just curious as for me, the windows will always be up.
