$35 shipped. It's strictly for indoor use but my Celica is going to be sitting in a Garage for the next 4-5 months. I know it's silly to skimp so hard on the cover but as long as it keeps dust off of it, it is all I need.

I might be asking for trouble with such a cheap cover but I figure as long as I wash and wax it before I put it on I should be fine. Like I said, it's going to sit in a garage.

The material is like canvas so you definetly only want to use this indoors. It fits alright, I think it's worth $35. It'll do the job!!
Go for it, sounds good to me. It does say specifically for indoor use, I think it'll work well.

I'm thinking of picking that one up once summer rolls around, since my car will be outside during weekends and a few weekdays...basically, whenever my dad's home. I need UV protection, my front bumper's already fading. frown.gif

+1 for empirecovers, my car was getting slammed by pollen, I was getting sick of washing it everyday. I went with the tyvek cover from empirecovers, light weight and snug fit. the pollen blows right off now.
