Default Car Cover

I'm looking for a good car cover since my car sits outside on the street and lately I have had problems with ******** throwing eggs. I'm looking into covers from http://www.calcarcover.com and http://www.covercraft.com. Anyone have any experiences with these on an EG Coupe? My main concern with these covers is do they have some way to lock them onto the car? I think I've seen covers before that you can put a rope-like thing under the car and hook it onto the bottom of each side of the cover and use a lock to prevent someone from taking the cover off? Or am I just imagining this?

i got one from walmart for like 25 bucks, and it is good enough and it also has an option for the lock..

no need for fancy things. as long as the cars not sitting for very long, if its daily its fine.

How is the inside? Is it soft on the paint or have you noticed any scratches or anything?
