Default Car Covers

I want a "made to fit" car cover for my 2006 coupe and one for my friend who has an 2005. I would really like the one from Ford makes. But I lost my link to ford's .pdf file of the accessories.

Here's the link to the one I got:
http://www.classicdesignconcepts.com...splay/644.html
It fits my 2005 GT coupe perfectly and is $154

The one at Ford's website is here:

You can order one for your Mustang and specify if you don't have a rear spoiler. They also have a Cobra Logo as well as the same Pony logo as the former one.
But they want $254! I really don't think that makes it a good idea!
Check for my previous postings on car covers for more info.

I have the Ford cover referenced in the link above. I bought it from my local Ford dealer.

The big advantage to that cover is that it's a perfect fit and you don't have to worry about it coming off in high winds or anything. You also don't have to worry about it tearing on the exhaust pipe like the cheap ones. I don't like the fabric as much as the Genuine Honda cover I had for my S2000, oh well...

The Ford cover has a horsey on the front and says Mustang on the back, neither of which make a big difference for me. It also has a clear plastic window to show the rear license plate, for whatever that is worth. It won't keep the car dry in a rain storm, but it keeps heavy dew off of the car and does an excellent job of keeping the dust off when it's dry out.

Well atleast here in Mass it is illigal to have an unregistered car in your yard, so im guessing they have it set up for the tags so the cops can see.

I ordered a "custom cover" from Eastwood. I should get it any-day. I'll let you know how I like it.. only $175. If it is true custom, that's not a bad deal
