Car Covers

Who has a car cover for their evo? Which is the nicest to get? How is the OEM evo cover? The Cal Car Covers are nice, but more money. Input please

I have an OEM car cover for an Evo with a wing for sale. Never opened in OEM box, its grey with velvet-like material. PM me for a price shipped.

I'm using the Covercraft Evolution(name of the material) car cover, it fits perfectly even the antenna! It's a bit expensive though $160 or so.

My car is typically garaged so I don't worry about a car cover but I had a few months at my inlaws while our house was being built and the Evo had to live outside. I didn't want to spend the $$ for a good car cover for such a short amount of time so I got one of the $60 ones from Checker/Kragen. It did the job (sort of) but it sucked. Definitely one of those "you get what you pay for" kinda deals.

The cheap one that I got from Checker/Kragen, was breathable, water resistent (not waterproof) and is a fabric that won't scratch the finish.
