My TL has always been garaged but in the fall I will be going off to college and will have to park outdoors. I am look for a good quality car cover for all season southern california use. The acura is $250, and I am not convinced it is as good as some of the others. How does it compare to the ones at pepboys and such? What do you guys use? Any commemts appreciated.

Oh yeah, now I remember. Yowsa, nice figure... but I digress. I bought a Covercraft "Weather Shield HD" car cover for $295.00 about 2 months ago. It works so well that I kick myself for not buying it much sooner. Bought if from ProperAutoCare.com and haven't regretted the steep price once!

Later,

The COVERCRAFT WEATHERSHIELD CAR COVER is what I have for my 2000TL . COVERCRAFT makes the car covers for ACURA/HONDA models. So the factory car cover you buy from the dealer is made by Cover Craft. I also had one for my 1994 ACCORD that I purchased from the HONDA dealer when that car was new. It was also made by Cover Craft & NOAH fabic was used then it had the ACCORD logo on the front. My TL cover just has ACURA logo on the front & the WEATHSHIELD fabric is lighter than the NOAH. www.covercraft.com
