Friday can't come soon enough I'm sure!

westcoastcorvette.com has some nice satin stretch covers (and other cool stuff) you could check out.

Looking forward to pics. Love DSOM

If you want good quality but don't want to spend a lot, I got a generic one from Costco for $30. It fits and looks great.

Good for you! I have to wait at least two more weeks with a TPW of 10/27 for my DSOM Coupe. I hope it gets shipped right after it gets built. Good thing we decided to keep the C6 so we still get a few more weeks of Corvette driving before they all go to sleep for the winter months. Post pictures!

It must have seemed like Christmas eve. I don't know how you could have
gone to sleep. Anxious to see the pictures. I know the c7 is going to look amazing in that color.

Hope your delivery did happen today and looking forward to seeing pics of the car.

I'd second the recommendation to check with West Coast Corvettes - I saw in the back of the latest edition of Corvette Magazine that they have their Ultra Guard covers on sale and perhaps others as well.
