check out california car covers. they make great fitted covers for many purposes. they will tell you beside each fabric wether its made for indoor/outdoor use and stuff like that. they are a little pricey but if you want a nice one, then they are what you want.

Also check out www.Autoanything.com. They sell the same products that many car cover dealers sell but not as expensive.
I bought the Evolution 4 for $191. because my garage is full and the pony has to sit outside. So far, it has held up really good! For your car indoors, you wouldn't need a heavy cover like that. Although, it's great for protecting dings and dents.

In fact, this car cover is just like the Calif. Car Cover I bought for my '82 GT but a lot less.

buy the one that's on sale. If the car is left outside, that's a different story.

If you want to save a few bucks go with the Covercraft Ready-fit cover.

Only $89.99

if you are looking for a great outdoor cover check out the Coverking Storm Proof cover

One of the best on the market.

They have some decent ones from empire. their website has a computer generation tool so you can see what the cover looks like on and off the car pretty cool.

Here is the link for our CoverKing configurator.

They have some great cover options!

Custom Car Covers

Satin Stretch->Satin Stretch is an indoor Custom Car Cover fabric. It will fade if exposed to extended sun, and is not water resistant.
Satin Stretch is the SOFTEST fabric available, and has Lycra yarns to hug every contour of a vehicle. Blind stitching results in invisible seams - this is a SEXY car cover!

Triguard->A 3 layer Custom Car Cover material suited for light weather conditions (perfect for occasional use or vehicles stored under a carport). Triguard is fairly soft and very compact. Do not use Triguard in harsh weather or sun. Triguard™ is also not suited in areas with industrial fall out (acid rain).

Coverbond 4->4 layers make Coverbond 4 a very thick and bulky Custom Car Cover. It is not suggested for daily users, or for people with large SUVs. However, the extra bulk helps to guard against minor nicks and dings, and even helps in light hail. Coverbond 4 is suggested for moderate weather or indoor use.

Mosom Plus-> Mosom Plus is a four layer material. The outer two layers are Spunbond Polypropylene, the middle layer is a special micro-porus film and the inside layer is super-soft fabric. The middle layer is an excellent rain barrier, while allowing for vapors to pass through. The special cotton flock inner layer pampers the most delicate paint finish. It is a great choice for all-around car cover use, suggested for most conditions except extreme sun, snow or ice. Mosom Plus is a non-woven material, so in the unlikely event a rip occurs in the materlial, it will not run. As with all Coverking Custom Car Covers, Mosom Plus™ Covers can be custom made in just 2 days!

Silverguard->Similar in properties to Mosom Plus, but with more sun resistance, slightly less breathability and no soft inner liner. Silverguard is a 300 denier polyester woven Custom Car Cover fabric with a unique encapsulative coating. It is perfect for general use, even in very sunny climates. The silver coating helps to reflect sunlight

Silverguard Plus-> Silverguard Plus is a 300 Denier polyester material with a reflective, water resistant coating on the outer layer and a soft, non-abrasive layer on the inside. It is a great choice for all-around car cover use, suggested for most conditions except extreme rain, snow or ice. 300 denier is a strong, heavy weave, which will not rip or tear easily. The silver coating on Silverguard Plus does an excellent job of reflecting sunlight, while keeping rain and animal droppings from damaging the vehicle finish. The special soft inner layer pampers the most delicate paint finish.

Stormproof->Coverking was overwhelmed after receiving test results of our latest design - Stormproof. The culmination of over a decade of material engineering, it has only recently been possible to manufacture the microscopic yarns which go into this advanced micro-fiber Custom Car Cover material. Only one textile mill in the world was able to meet Coverking's specifications - and although challenged by Coverking's design, the results are truly a triumph for car cover users! Stormproof is UNCOATED and UNTREATED this means that even after months or years of use, it will have the same properties! Stormproof feels more like an expensive golf jacket, yet is tested to be the MOST WATER RESISTANT and (because there are no coatings) the MOST BREATHABLE. You can't go wrong with Stormproof - available in gray, black, red, wine, and two tone combinations with black sides

Autobody Armor->Revolutionary new material takes the stretch of Coverking Satin Stretch custom covers, and combines it with all weather protection. A middle layer of Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) provides your vehicle with the best water resistance available from a Custom Car Cover today. Two outer layers of woven polyester reinforce and protect the inner layer while allowing moderate breathability. Protect your vehicle from the elements while keeping a perfect fit!

Thanks!

Ken
