After looking around at various places I bought a car cover for the new Mustang. It's ok but a bit heavy and it didn't fit all that well, but good enough.

Eight days ago I ordered a custom fit car cover from the Car Cover World Mustang Store It came yesterday. They have all sorts of different styles you can order. Each one is custom fit for your make of car. I got the DUSTOP cover, made primarily for indoor use: offers maximum dust protection. It fits like a glove, is much lighter and is ultra soft. I'm thinking of painting / air brushing the running horse on the nose or the back of the cover.....or both?

Brother, that's one pampered pony!

I think you should stencil the logo on both ends. It will also help tell if the cover is inside out while you're putting it on. Only thing I'd be worried about is stuff falling on your car during a quake. Yikes! Don't want to even think of that...

I thought about that as well. I'll be re-doing the shelves this weekend....soft stuff at top.....and maybe putting a retractable cover over the shelves. I could always park it in the middle of the garage and park my truck outside.......... but I love it too!

Oh yeah........ as is you have to remove the antenna to cover the car, but you can punch a hole over the antenna and install a plastic gromet they include so the cover will fit without removing the antenna. Plan on doing that tonight.

Hmmmmm. Never thought of that. I would have to say yes. I'd imagine any cover equipped with an access hole for the antenna would do so. The company does have a cover called WEATHERSHIELD that provides maxium outdoor protection. But I'd assume to keep all water out you'd have to remove the antenna when covering your car, which really isn't that big a deal.

Seeing as how the cover I got is mainly for indoor use to provide maximum dust protection (ok....I'm pampering my baby), and it will never be subjected to the elements, that's one thing I won't have to be concerned about.
