2nd Wolf cover in 2 years.
I just went through another Wolf Noah cover. It ripped right down the seam, Again. When the wind picks up here the cover does not stay on and ripped.
I have to say, the cover stinks, I am tired of spending $150. on a new custom fit cover. So, for about 1/5th the price I can get the same fabric and protection with a universal cover.
From what I understand the size is 3? Is that right?
BTW, I purchased the cover twice from a vendor here and they do not want to cover it under warranty. The First time I chalked it up to mother nature, but twice at the same time of year, come on. That is a whole different story about the vendor. Needless to say I will be taking my business and money else where.

I purchased a Wolf cover for my 78 PC and within 6 months it shrunk by 1/3 and the vette is kept in a garage. So when it was time to buy a cover for my 03AE I had a custome one made. It is triple lined and as soft as a babies bottom.
Like you, I think the product stinks (Wolf) and would not recommend it to anyone.

If the Vendor doesn't want to cover it contact Wolf directly. I have had several replaced under warranty this way. As long as you know where you bought it from and have an order number they will cover it. I even got Coverking to replace a stormshield with their new material stormproof, but I had to send them the cover first. Most companies will stand behind their product whether the Vendor does or not.

I did that and they told me to call the place where I purchased it for an exchange. Which the vendor will not do, even though I gave them the wolf's guy's name and number.
Like I said, no more business for either one.Steve, Thanks for the offer, But when the forclosure rate is above 50% we are waiting for a housing crash and pick up a house for prices like 7-8 years ago.

I have a Cover craft Weather Shield cover and it has served me well for over two years. Initially I had a problem with slight scratches being cause by the seam stitching so I sent it back. They covered the seams for me and set me a check to cover reglazing the paint.
Cover craft makes Noah covers so contact them.
What everyone needs to do if they store the car outside is to tie down the covers so that they do not flap and rip in the winds. I used about a dozen 36" shock cords that I looped from the front and rear wheels both over the hood and truck but around the front a rear bumper areas. Additionally I also went from the side view mirrors over the windshield. Very little and no scratching I also let the snow sit on cover as that really holds it down. This all works well, but it is a PIA if you want to drive occasionally.

I use a Noah on mine. It would blow off if wind was high. I use the small squeeze type clamps to hold the cover on. I clamp on th rear bump underneath and the same in the front. There are places to do this and it doesn't hurt the finish. I have plastic ends on the clamps. I also use a covered cable with lock on the bottom.
