Car Canopy ?

I was wondering if anyone has explored a car canopy to protect their G. I have a driveway but the garage is already occupied. So any suggestions (i.e. manufacturer) or horror stories are welcome.

Thx

I would be interested in something like this as well.

I recall at SEMA, there was a car buble available. I think the thing was like $300.

I just bought one today from Costco. It's 10' x 20' Canopy. Item number is 122175. Got it for $165.00 Total weight is over 180 lbs so it won't be a breeze to blow it away.

Thanks for responding ... any indication of how that thing will hold up under heavy snow / wind

There's no snow here in So. California so my main concern was with wind. This canopy includes a plate for each leg. The plate has 3 holes so you can bolt it onto your cement or use the included 12" stakes for dirt. As you can see from the picture, it also has vents at the top of the canopy to let wind out if it gets under the canopy. I only have this canopy for a week so I'll try to answer your questions when I can.

I am looking for parts for this item. Does anyone know where they can be obtained? We need 1 4 corner bracket that supports the side and roof. I believe that this is an old item from Costco. Thanks.
