Anyone know where I can get a nice car cover for my 2011 Mustang 5.0? My car is Black and I have very soft sheets on it for now in my garage till I find the right cover for it. I don't want to use anything from Walmart (the abrasive grey ones) because of the nice black paint- so something which is truly going to protect it, and at the same time look nice.

I'd love to get one with a Mustang on it too. If you guys have one, and can share what you paid, and where you got it from, please feel free to post. I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance Gentlemen or Ladies

 

I have the CoverCraft Evolution cover for my 07 GT/CS. I went with it because it is similar in quality to the OEM cover. With 4 layers it's thicker which provides some protection from dings and scratches. It's already paid itself off once that way.

Because it is thicker, it does take up more room in my trunk than a single layer cover would though.

Here's their material guide for a handy reference.

 

how long does is take to deploy and remove one of these?

 

I've got it down to about two minutes, three if I am putting the locking cable on.

 

nice, thanks for the info Chris!! I'm thinking about getting one of these now. There are an aweful lot of geese and birds here where I work

 

With the cable on, does it fit tight enough that a strong wind won't pull one or both ends off? Seems like every time I see a covered car, the wind has blown half the cover off. Thanks!

 

It fits quite tightly on my car, and it's pretty heavy so the wind doesn't pick it up so easily.
I haven't had the cover on much while the car was outdoors, but it didn't slip off during those few days it was on. I seem to recall it was pretty breezy on at least one of those days.

EDIT: CoverCraft offers extra lines to help keep the cover on in windy conditions.

By the way, for those of you who are new to using covers. If you want to properly protect your paint, be sure to fold the cover back on itself so that the outside surface can't contact the inner surface. This way dirt won't transfer to the side of the cover that faces the paint.

 

CoverCraft is also licensed by Ford to use their logos. You can custom order your cover with your choice of:

 

i too have purchased the Covercraft Evolution 4 Car Cover with the mirror pockets

too bad i can't comment on it's usefulness because i don't have the friggin car yet

 

I used the Covercraft indoor Tan flannel one on my '69 for 4 years without any problems. It was a heavy cover, but also provided the best protection against dings and scratches. Was very satisfied. I just ordered the Covercraft Dustop cover for my new 5.0, again, this is for indoor use only.

 

Thanks a lot guys for the covercraft recommendation and tips- sounds like a nice product

Does anyone have the part # for the mustang and have an idea of how much they spent for one of these covers?

I didnt see a drop down for Mustangs. I just tried to call them and they're closed now, but tomorrow I can follow up too.

Thanks in advance fellas

 

i got mine here

i got some other stuff with it but after checking some other sites it was the cheapest here with the free shipping

 

Thanks!!! IO appreciate it m4eapr!

By the way, has anyone got the Mustang OEM cover from Ford? It seems expensive and comes with the PONY logo and all. Is it any good??

 

I know i paid too much for it but i ordered a custom fit Mustang cover through my dealer from Ford Accessories.com. It has the Pony logo on the front and the word Mustang on the rear. With shipping and tax i paid $427.10, OUCH!!! I just got a e-mail saying it has been shipped just a few minutes ago.

 

nicest covers I have ever used.

****, I guess nothing comes cheap from the OEM.

Thanks for the info PTRocks.

 

Ouch, you can say that again. Ford are really greedy about car accessories.

 

I know but surely to goodness it will be a perfect fit for the mirrors and rear radio antenna.

 

The Covercraft Evolution cover fits very well. It did not come with an antenna hole, however it was fairly easy to locate by putting the cover on the car with the antenna removed. The instructions are included with the cover.

I bought mine from Canadian Tire (on special order) and paid about 180$.
