Anyone know where to get an inexpensive car cover?

 

autozone and kragen and the like all carry their universal fit car covers. They usually have a fit guide on the back that will list a mustang. I started off with one of those. You really do get what you pay for, though. The cover that claimed to fit all 05+ mustangs, barely covered the top 1/3 of my tires and seemed to collect more dust under the cover than if I had left it uncovered. (I'm in Cali so dust is about the only thing I have to worry about) I think the brand name was "Budge"

I eventually went with a custom fit from Wolf. Fit and protection both great.

Get what you can afford, but don't expect too much out of most universal fits.

 

I have a sweet Mustang Source Cover I just listed it in the FS section. I never even used it. It is the cover KCSTANG sells from the Dealer.

Best cover you can buy. I was looking to get $80.00 shipped.

 

Nevermind, Just sold it in record time.

 

Be careful. A cheap car cover can damage your paint by retaining moisture. Buy a quality cover, and buy one that is correct for how the car is stored. In the long run, you'll be better off.

 

Go ahead and buy a good one if you can, and remember to be careful about storing it when it's not on a car. It can pick up a few pieces of gravel or dirt, and when you pull the cover on and off, you can get some nasty scratches.

 

I am getting the Ford Weathershield one - have a friend that works at a dealership and is picking it up for me. It retails for $310 plus tax. I am getting it for $250 tax included.

 

I bought a Covercraft from American Muscle, very nice cover that has very good protection from dings or scratches. They are about $170, which I feel is a very nice deal. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
