Hey I need help! I need to find a good car cover for $100 or less (preferably less) to put over my car for three months.

I looked on the internet and there's all sorts of materials and claims. I'd do what I usually would do, and that's research like crazy but I need to order it soon to receive it. I need it by the end of next week...

Anyway, what should I look for or avoid? better yet, you got a link to a place that sells a car cover that you use AND are happy with?

You won't find a good custom fit cover for all weather protection under $100. You will get what you pay for. I have a Noah fabric custom fit car cover (around $170) and love it. It does take about a week to make it and then ship it.

If you are planning on leaving the car -- make sure to have someone watch it. No matter what cover you have, a stong wind will take it off.

It is a good long term investment if you have to park outside, you just have to make the commitment to cover it. I actually only use it at work and garage it at home.
