Question Lets talk Car Covers....

Hi Guys,

I wanted to get you opinion on which car cover to buy for my car. I am new to buying a car cover, so I don't know much about them. I do know that their are different ones with different layers,breathability, and materials.

Which one would you guys recommend is a good one for the car and will not scratch the car?

Is the Genuine Acura car cover good? I am sure that there are better ones than the Acura one at a better price.

Any help on this matter would greatly be appreciated.

California Car Covers.
They make a variety of them. Custom fit for each car.
Will this be used outdoors or indoors?

The worst part about car cover (for me) is taking it off every morning and put it on every nite...

When I received my 2004 Nighthawk Black Pearl TL, I bought a Acura cover for it. I hated it. It left white smears on my Black car!

I sent it back and got a CoverCraft Weather Guard, this is a much better cover. Even in high wind it stays put.

I've used California Car covers on my last 3 cars. They are very expensive, but if you want the best cover on the market they're it. The fabric is very thin, folds up in a small pillow sized bundle, and is easily home washable.
