Question Car Cover Recommendations?

Hey all,

I have a job where I frequently have to leave my Z parked outside unprotected for anywhere between a week and sometimes up to a month or longer in a secure but uncovered parking lot.

I have been looking for covers for my Z and I'm really completely uneducated as to what I am looking for.

You guys and gals have any recommendations for me?

Thanks

Mosi

hey Mosi-
I got a custom made cover for the Z WITH THE ATTENAE POUCH INCLUDED
from Autogeek.com. After reading reviews-the Weathershield did best and that is what I got. I am telling you it is awesome! It fits perfectly and has stayed on in high winds and thunderstorms.

I've had 3 different covers on my Z and none of them have ever damaged the paint.

Yeah that's nothing to worry about.

I have a problem with either a skunk or a cat peeing on my car at least once or twice a week so the cover really comes in handy. LOL

Well if you catch them doing it, pee on them and show them you are the Alpha.

I could try with the cat but I don't want to get sprayed by the skunk.
