Default car cover to fit over spoiler

I just bought a 2008 v6 mustang and it came with a spoiler.

I'm looking for a high quality car cover for outdoor use that will fit over the spoiler.

What do you recommend?

Had one on my F150 and loved it.

Wow. For some of those prices I could get a small carport built.

haha yea some of the prices for car covers are a bit ridiculous. I just bought one on ebay for $20. It's going to be stored indoors so I'm not worried about UV damage. But they guarantee it'll fit or my money back so I figured it's worth it.

Update:
I bought the 1304 Rampage car cover from JC Whitney for $60.00

I'll post review once I get it.

Just my opinion, I'm not a fan of car covers; I feel you'd have to wash your car before each time you put it on.
I don't trust them because the swirl marks may increase as well as scuffs/scratches, due to dirt being rubbed into the paint.
I unfortunately have to keep my car outside. If you keep it properly detailed with a wash every week or two, and a wax every two months and a great detailer spray, your paint should last and be protected.
Just my opinion!

It did well in a severe rainstorm. Easy to put on and fits the Mustang like a glove.

I bought my Covercraft Evolution 4 car cover from Autoanything.com. They give you a 3 year warranty. Over time (if it is used outside) the material breaks down and leaves dust particles on your car. When that happens they will send you a new one.
You do need to wipe your car down each time the cover is put on. I did not put a hole in for the antenna. I just unscrew it and stick it in my trunk.
My 3 years are up so I am getting ready to order another one. You can find discounts online or in car mags.

Some people hate car covers but I have been using them for years. My garage is full so I don't have an option. It keeps dust, bird poo and debri off my car. It still looks like new!
