Default C5 Cover

I'm looking for a indoor cover for my coupe. Any suggestions? Brand? Material?
Thanks

I've been using a Noah cover on my FRC for about 5 years now. Very happy with it. I think it costs around $149.

Default Car cover

I have a tan flannel cover from Big Sky Car covers. Very soft and kind to paint, and adds a bit of "cushioning" due to the thicker material.

I have a flannel one, can't remember the brand, but it leaves alot of small flannel stuff all over my black vert top. It is a grey cover, If i would have know I would have gotten a black cover.

I use a Wolf cover from Mid America. By far the best cover I've ever used. I store my vette outside, so a cover is a must. The Wolf protects great, and even after weeks of it being covered in all kinds of weather, from rain to snow, after you pull the cover off it looks just like it did when you covered it. No dust, no cover residue, nothing. It's ready to roll to a show.

I love my coverking satin stretch. Very soft on the paint and fits perfectly. Even covers the wheels and tires perfect.

Same here...the Wolf indoor/outdoor works great for me (although I only use it in the garage). Not too expensive either IMHO.

I have a black coupe and the Wolf cover leaves no swirls or dust behind.

I have a cover that I bought from Corvette Garage - silver in color and has an embroidered C5 logo on the front. Cost was $99 and it fits very well. Plus it is pretty lightweight for easy handling.

Take a look at the "Wall" brand. Fits perfect, easy on/off and really keeps the crap off!

Does it have a cutout for the radio antenna? I have a FRC.

I've always owned CALIFORNIA CAR COVERS and have been very happy with their products. They have several "grades" which allows you to choose/buy the fabric that's right for you!
