I'm in Montana, and when I get my evo ix I'd like a cover that will stand up to at least a foot of snow/ice because it will be sitting outside for a year or two till I can move off the air force base. Will the one from mitsu be sufficient? Will I have need to reneforce it? Also is there any way to secure it so the wind doesn't pull it off?

Thanks.

get the covercraft made cover- it is much more substantial than the mitsu sold one. I have the covercraft evolution fabric, got it from autoanything. If you search you'll see this is a popular cover here; this same thread comes up a lot. Oh, IIRC it does have grommets for securing.

Ive used one from covercraft for past 2 winters fits perfect. It has pockets for the mirrors and wing and grommets on the side to tie it under the car.

Here is a brand new OEM car cover on the first page of the classifieds. The sale is pending, so you might want to inquire if interested.

Remember to wash the car before you slap that cover on! Dont want dirt thats trapped between the cover and the paint to do damage. Goodluck with the training!

You have to call them for a wingless cover. Ordered online, they're cut for Evos with wings.

As mentioned above, the car has to be clean. Otherwise, there's a good chance of damaging the paint with the cover. Good luck.
