Got mine from WCC, but the OEM tire inflater won't fit in the right bin as it comes from the factory. I had to move it to the center bin where it flops back and fourth under braking/acceleration and knocks around. I need to secure it or wrap it in a towel.

Yes, I have the same cover. The fit and color are dead on with mine and the folding/hinged top is a nice feature too.

I made my own. I traced out my covers from my coupe before I sold it. I had to modify the side covers slightly. You can get get spray adhesive and carpet from walmart. Probably less than $40.
