got a car cover?

I need a damn car cover. Theres all sorts of stuff going on around where i live, and i need one badly. Too many thieves roaming around, kids playing hide and go seek, birds flying around my new G... lol and i can't be looking at my G the whole time. Someone suggested a Wolf cover. But not sure which to get out of all the ones they offer. So any other suggestions?

Infiniti sells a car cover for the G35 Coupe. I have it, and it fits very well, and is 100% water repellent in my experiences. You have to be careful to not put it on when your car is dirty though, because it will scratch the paint. I only use mine when I can't be in a garage and I just cleaned it.

I got a target one, 100% waterproof, breathable, comes with the tow-away sack when the cover is not in use, and comes with the underbody wire lock so it doesn't get blown away in the wind or jacked for that matter. 30 bucks, fits like a charm.

I've got a brand new Infiniti G35 coupe cover that I've never used (came with my car). I'll sell it if you want it. It's silver colored with the Infiniti insignia on it.

Used to use a car cover with a previous car. Problem I ran into was taht the car was never really clean enough to ahve the fabric of the car cover on the paint.

I'd wash and wax, put the cover on, no problem. Next day, I'd uncover and go to work. By the time I got the car home it was covered with a light layer of dust - you know - the stuff you can't avoid from sitting in a lot all day.

Used it until one day I noticed that the dust was bunching at the corners of the car, on the edges of the bumper where the car cover wrapped over and then under the lip of the bumper. Got a few scratches from that deal. The car cover never went back on..

So then you would constantly need to have your car clean to put the car cover on, else it would ruin the paint. Isn't there a car cover that won't scratch or ruin the paint if you cover it. I just don't what these damn kids that run around here to put their fingers or touch my car.

wouldnt a car cover attract even more attention? just find someone in your neighborhood who has a big driveway or garage and ask if you can park there for $50 a month.

I bought my car cover from Stillen and it fits perfect. At the time it was on sale for like $79. Now i believe it's like $94. I wouldn't worry about it scratching. I have a Blk coupe and i pull it on and off everyday. I just try to be really careful

I don't use one, but if my car wasn't garaged I'd consider getting the one from
the dealer. Not only will it save your car from kid's finger prints, the UV and acid
rain protection is a huge plus.
