Car Cover

Hey guys,
What are you using for a car cover? I found empirecarcovers.com to be pretty well priced. Anyone have any good reviews?


Thanks guys

I have a Covercraft NOAH cover. I like it very much. You dont want any car cover if the car is outside. dirt and wind will get under it and scratch your car up.

I use the Noah by Covercraft also. Great fit, soft on your paint.

Found this OEM Camaro cover new for $90 someone did not want.
Glove fit and mirror pockets. No liner. Looks very durable compared to last cheapo one.
Car thiefs probably like it because they do not need to peek under with the name on the side they know in advance.

I think that is the same one I got. Paid more like $250. I love it. The liner is very soft. Fit is great. Mine stays inside.

My car cover melts off in the spring. It's called snow.

Bought this one from Summit this year. Nice basic cover with mirror pockets at a very reasonable price.

Checked out that website. I think I may go that way as I live in the GTA (Ontario) so I could even go and pick it up.

Thanks

have a five layer cover from carcovers.com, and it does not scratch the paint like someone previously stated. just got to put it on when it is clean and secure it with gust guard clips and 3 or 4 bungee cords. when I took my cover off after 3.5 months of outside winter weather and it looked pretty spotless. here is a pic of it with snow and without

I used to cover my 1995 Trans Am. Paint was damn near flawless (owned 2007-2010), and I rarely drove it. After a while, the wind blowing over time caused the cover to rub against my rear spoiler, damaging the paint.

I won't use a cover outside anymore.
