*Sigh* 370z in garage

My car's been hanging at the dealership while they fix up the clear bra application. I haven't been able to drive it in a month, and won't get it back

2009 Nissan 370 Z Custom Car Cover Stretch Satin | CarCoverPlanet.com

Stretch Satin with Fleece liner. It is meant for indoor use. They have outdoor covers as well.

Recommended by Lou Fusz and I am very happy with it. Very good quality and worth the money.

My Stormproof cover just arrived. Unfortunately, my garage only holds one car, so the Z has to sleep outside. Need to give the Z a bath and hook up the battery tender before I can test the cover. Review and pics to come.

Ask and you shall receive:







It seems to be working very well, although it had some issues with blowing off in high winds. I got some cover clamps from Griot's Garage and that seems to have solved the problem.
It looked really cool this morning... it was like a wet, frozen black shrink-wrap with all the ice and freezing rain we've been getting.

Not my garage. It's my Mums.

She has 2 car garage and 1 car.
I have 2 car garage and 3 cars.

So the Z goes to her place to hibernate for the winter. That way my daily driver stays in garage during winter.
