Default Do you use a car cover for your Roadster?

Hey all, I searched but didn't see anything. I'm stuck leaving my roadster (2011 red, just got it, woot!) outside and it's been raining like a bitch lately. Makes me want to get a car cover. No leaks so far but I really want to keep it looking nice and protect it until I can get a garage.

Have any of you guys used one? Did you get the official Nissan one? How does it deal with the giant antenna? Is it a big hassle to take off/put on? Thanks guys.

There is a thread on this subject. It lists all kind of covers. You do not have to remove the antenna on the custom covers. I replaced that ugly thing though. I ordered my cover here Car Covers Direct: Quality Custom Car Covers to Fit Any Vehicle. You can select the amount of protection you need. I have the NOAH Block It, my car is only outside for Imports at Carlisle in May.

jessica@coversdirect.com This is the best place anywhere to purchase a car cover for your car. Most all car covers only come down to the middle of the wheel, I wanted one that came all the way to the ground so I had them add 12 inches to it. My cover fit like a glove and has the mirror and rear antenna pockets. Jessica even added the locking strap for free. Not regularly free but if you mention my name, she may do the same for you.
