owners of vehicle covers please shed your info on where you got your cover and if it was OEM or not...

what price & place you got it will be very helpful! i will be detailing my G in a week or 2 (once i buy the vehicle cover) & i need a cover so all that detailing will not be for nothing!

well, thanks in advance!

I just got a generic one from AutoZone for $29.00 fits like a glove almost makes you think it's an OEM one.

 

P.S.

If you want I can snap a pic for you.

 

yeah post some pics please

 

hey Speed, does the Autozone one come with (forgot whats it called) but it looks like a place where i can run a wire and secure it with a lock??

 

Got mine from an ex G owner on ebay for 50 bux. Even has the infinity logo on it.

 

Yes, it does come with a loop for a lock (at least that's what I think the loop is for) - lock is not included though. If it's not for a lock then I don't know what it's for. It also comes with a lace that I'm suppose to run through somewhere, but I'm not exactly sure where through (didn't have the time to look into it).
Also, it comes with this cover (for the cover) attached to it. What I do is I throw the cover in the trunk and shut it close - the cover is now locked in the trunk but it's still attached to the big cover, so they can't just pull the cover off the car - they'll have to rip it, in which case it will become useless to them.

Pics to follow later on today (I'll post them here).

 

that's a great idea about the bag!! thanks Speed!!

and looking forward to those pictures!! i'm pretty sure one of my friends has one of those covers from auto zone, i'll pass by his house tonight and will definately be passing by infiniti this weekend and compare both of em... then and there, i will make up my mind and spend either the 200+ for the OEM or the auto zone one... which in reality, both should do the same damn thing! so im leaning towards the autozone one now! lol

 

Ok guys, as I promised, here are some pics of my $29 AutoZone cover
It actually fits even better than in the pictures, but it was like 90 degrees outside so I just threw it on and snapped the pics...
Hope these help

 

hey speed

Does it have a soft inside?

I'm worried about those cheap car covers if it scratches my car

Brand name would also be nice so we know what avoid at autozone

 

i can't believe the infiniti one costs over 200 bucks...it's a car cover...

 

that right there will make my decision even faster!

i have a black on black car, and am worried about scratches and what not...

 

Uhmmm, honestly I'll have to check. I'll report back tomorrow morning...

 

No offence speed .. But 29.00 at AutoZone is junk junk junk! Save yourself the time and just start sandblasting your paint now. Folks, you get what you pay for & there is plenty to know about car covers. Do a search off google about car covers and visit a few sites. The fit is awful and will be flapping in the wind and scratching the paint for $29.00 Speed. I'm sure it has next to nothing on UV protection, I�m sure it does not breath well if at all... & I could go on about other faults that cover has. Pay $250.00 to $500.00 if you want a cover worth covering your $40,000 car ... Trust me.
