It's not a problem. There is a gasket that make's sure water doesnt go inside the tailight housing. Dont worry about it.

totorogirl...

You just mean water gets into the creases...not actually inside the housing right??

If you mean the latter...that is a problem. I have seen people (OK, I even did it once on my Acura) get carried away with the power washer at the do-it-yourself car wash bays and shoot the jet stream right at the edge of the lens and water gets forced into the housing...resulting in condensation inside the light enclosure which is next to impossible to get out without taking the works apart.
