Default Indoor cover recommendations

I'm shopping for a new indoor cover. There seems to be a lot of choices out there. I would prefer one that has a fleece, or similar soft material on the inside that comes into contact with the car, and that has mirror cut-outs.

I've always been partial to the flannel indoor covers. Nice soft flannel against the paint and the material is thick enough to provide some protection against garage rash. Just bought one for my new C7 from Corvette Mods. Great fit with mirror pockets, only modification needed was to get rid of the tie down strap and grommets (which are kind of stupid considering that it's an indoor cover). Hope this helps.

GM offers a good car cover as well as some of the forum vendors/major aftermarket parts vendors. Prices vary quite a bit depending on the cover so shop around and see which one catches your eye.

The key word is garage rash. As careful as I am sometimes I brush up against it carrying things between the cars. I much prefer a thicker indoor/outdoor cover than the thin indoor ones. The UltraGuard is my favorite.

I was looking at that too. Does it have a flannel or fleece type of material on the underside of the cover?

I like the GM OEM covers. They fit fantastic, have a nice soft fleece lining that won't scratch your Stingray's finish and come with a nice embroidered bag to store your cover in.
