Default Anyone with experiece using a CAR COVER?

Just recently bought an 03 Sonic Blue Cobra and I'm looking for some good advice on buying an outdoor car cover. Anyone have any experience with these? Brands? Price range?

Use a cover that is made from fabric, not plastic. Also, look for one that has grommets built into the bottom seam. That way you can secure it with a locking cable, or with bungie cords to keep the cover from flopping around in the wind. Keep in mind, that the more you have something rubbing against your paint, it will eventually wear through. Especially on the edges (like the door handles and fenders.) Also, get one that's made for your car so that if fits snug. CoverCraft is probably your best bet.

I have tried several brands, im my opinion the BEST are made from Dupont TYVEK, this material is "paper like", pretty light, can handle rain decently and dries fast.

These covers are thin, so they can be damaged easily, but i havent seen anything better.
