Default Fitted car cover focus rs mk2

Hi,

I bought a car cover for my focus rs mk2

First of all the medium size is to small and the next one up drowns it !!

And the under side that makes contact with the car has started putting air line scratches in the paint

Where and what is the best one to get for the focus rs mk2 ??

Thanks guys

Try http://www.auto-trim.co.uk/gallery/M...Covers/19.html or http://www.carcoverzone.co.uk/ford-focus-c-43_1556.html
I bought mine from Coverzone, it's spot on.

There was a thread on here the other day where a couple of people said their paint work started to bubble badly from using fitted covers......

OMG dont say that !!!!!

I might just stick to the heated garage ???

Problem is i have it set at 24c and then my car becomes a magnet for all the
little bits in the air :-(

perhaps best just leaving it alone ?

Thanks

With the amount of threads I have seen pop up over car covers causing damage through either blistering paintwork or rubbing through to primer or metal I will never bother with one! Even the expensive ones cause problems!

Save yourself time money and expense and just park it in the garage, not a big deal if it needs a wash when you next use it.

The first thing we should have asked, is your car outside? (I guess we assumed it was in the garage, I did!)
Mine below....
