Looking for an indoor cover recommendation...
I'd like to get an indoor cover for my '19 GS coupe.
I have the stage 2 spoiler on the rear and added the stage 3 splitter ends to the front.
Most of the satin stretch ones look like they wouldn't make it over the ends of the splitter without ripping.
Can anyone recommend a cover based on actual experience with the stage 3 areo up front?
thanks,
Rich

To save money you can use white bed sheets. A couple of those king size sheets should do the trick and keep the cost down.

My 2017 GS w/ stage 2 spoiler rests comfortably under the Z06 cover I purchased from one of the fine vendors here on the forum. The picture shows it before the Stage 2 upgrade, but it fits snug as a bug with my new upgraded aeros.

Don't laugh, but this is the one I got for my GS with stage 2 wickers and OEM splitter - . Fits fine but it's not going to give you sleek sexy look, if that's what you're looking for. I have another car I store and have been through a few covers over the years. The custom thin stretchy covers just don't offer enough protection for me. This is a mulit-layer thick cover (but not too heavy) that protects the car as well as keeps it clean while indoors. If something brushes up against it, I don't think twice. If you just care about protection, this should work fine.

Sorry for the late reply, Kid B said he got it from a friend through a Chevrolet dealer in North Dallas. It's a genuine GM ZO6 cover. I looked em up , they're not inexpensive, but I do know it'll fit.

Thanks for the info! My brother-in-law is the SM at my local dealership, i'll see if he can get it at a discounted price.

I don't cover indoors unless its going to be a full season. Otherwise I just dust, because I like to look at it! But I did try on the free cover that came with the car, and since this is for indoor.... why not that one?

Ended up with a cover king “storm proof” that will do both indoor and out. While I typically do not cover indoors I do when I park at the Airport in the PKING garage. It is mostly for when I drive to work...which is every day that I am not traveling. I have 13k on my 19 Gs....will be a year old in Nov.
Thanks for the suggestions

Following up on the CoverKing.....no bueno the mirrors were very difficult to get in and the last part is always the front, way to tight, I have used the OEM std. Stingray cover left over from my other 2 C7’s , those were not a wide body. Again anyone have any suggestions based on experience I would very much appreciate the input !!
Shout out to Chip at CCA who supplied the CK cover, he was an amazing guy to deal with and accepted the cover back with full refund !!

I have the OEM GS cover and am very please with it. Fits great as you would expect an OEM cover to and has a very soft flannel under liner to to protect your paint finish. Also comes with a very nice "Corvette" embroidered storage bag for when not in use.
A little pricey, but purchased mine during one of Cultrag's Holiday sales.

Thanks for the heads up. That looks like the "Indoor" cover, hopefully the logic also applies to the "Outdoor" version. I have both for a std. SR but as you know they are not reccomended for the Wide bodied (Z06/GS) versions. That said, I am noticing that they actually stitched in the fenders probably to accommodate the extra width .. thanks for the pics!!

Try the Ultraguard indoor/outdoor. Goes over mirrors and aero no problem.

What i am seeing is each cover manufacturer does their own thing. OEM covers spell out model it fits and I can tell you neither of my OEM covers (inside (soft) and outside (firm weather proof) have the extra room needed to fit. I had the same fit issues with the new "Cover King" cover that I just purchased. Initially I thought they had sent the wrong cover since the fit was the same as my others. After checking with the distributer they confirmed it was for a GS.
Back to square one.. thanks for the input !!
