Default I need a car cover

I have decided to cover my car for the times is it not being driven (which is quite often). I do not have access to a garage nor the money to buy a storage facility in which to store my vehicle. Beginning next week, I will be out of town for a while and would like to have the cover by then. The Acura car cover is listed at $186 from the local dealer. Does anyone know of a good cover that does not scratch the paint, or a dealer in West LA that could reduce the price of the cover, or perhaps even a dealer that could ship the cover in order for it to be here by next Wednesday (Dec. 11)? Thanks for the help.

I can get you one. Cheaper than the OEM cover and has a lifetime warranty. Sold quite a few to honda-tech members. IM me. Btw, they are vehicle specific. The ITR cover fits great.

i have a covercraft... they custom make itr models so the wing isn't a problem; mine is cotton and fits like a glove. Great when used in combination with a good alarm and pager http://www.covercraft.com -rob

i use a budge compact car cover. the front is covered perfectly but it's hard to pull the rear under the bumper since the wing is soo big. haha

Keep in mind, there are many materials of car covers. Not one is perfect for all applications.
