GM CAR COVER FOR ZL1

I was looking on ebay for a cover for my car and found one that GM makes for the the ZL1. It is a little pricey but I like it. It has the stripe down the center and says ZL1 on it also. Does anyone have a place to get a better buy on it? Just thought I would ask here because it never fails to happen when I buy something someone always says "you should have ask me about that I could have saved you a bunch of cash!" So does anyone know where to save me some cash on this?

I got mine from California Car covers . . . for less or about the same at the GM Car Cover.

I'd look at CCC. Sometimes OEM isn't the best option.

GM makes a really nice light cover for inside of the garage / interior use. But if you want an outside cover, CCC makes a great cover and that is what I bought for mine as well.

CCC has ~8 different covers, depending on how you will use it most.
indoor/outdoor/humid/dry/rain/UV protection/padding/etc . . .

I called them and they were very helpful in just talking to me about their different covers and what I needed.

They could have sold me a more expensive cover, but I feel like they really steered me towards the right cover. I will definitely go back for my next cover . . .

Thanks for the ideas. I did not think of CCC. I will give them a call tmrw and see what they say. I just really liked the GM one but like I said it was a little pricey I thought and was hoping someone could help me get it for less.

I have the GM cover for my ZL1 and love it. It is much more fitted than a CCC cover.

Is the cover very heavy? I just want one to cover the car while it is parked in my garage. Also does it have a rope in the middle that goes under the car to tie it?

Are you using for inside, or outside? If inside the ZL1 cover says ZL1 all over it and you can not see the logo much. If outside then it has a stripe and ZL1 on it. If you are using in garage, why a rope? The cover for inside is not heavy.

Why a rope? Was just asking if it had it. I had a cover for my grand national with a rope and it was always in the way.
