I don't drive car in the rain as a rule. But having KN filters and low with my GTM build concerns me about getting caught in the rain. Any hints

I don't drive car in the rain as a rule. But having KN filters
and low with my GTM build concerns me about getting caught in the rain.
Any hints on this besides the obvious?

I drive in the rain with no problems, just avoid puddles. If in your head you think it is a deep then don't drive through it. Better to just pull over and wait it out then destroy the engine.
General rain will not hurt it, it is puddles or standing water you have to watch out for.

Thanks for the information-I just hate to leave the car home if a short trip
comes around.
