50th Anniversary OUTDOOR Car Cover Review
I just ordered a 2017 was considering the 50th Outdoor Car cover...I haev a few days before its locked in and it wont result in delays... I just dont want to order something without having an idea of the quality and if it can stand up to lots of rain... since I am often in the Pacific Northwest...
Looks killer... just want to be sure its a quality item... Thanks in advance for any input you guys can give me in making a decision... I know alot of the Cover Craft HD series can dry out cars quite well... I have to leave for days on end so I plan on hosing down the car at the hanger if its raining so that when I put the car cover on its relatively clean and will dry underneath an Cover Craft HD...

I was going to try and get my dealer to give me an outdoor cover for free when I pick up the car. They gave me no break in the price saying it was a special model bs. So i figure lemme at least get SOMETHING out of them!
I'm interested to know how the covers look/feel or if anyone using a different cover |

The aftermarket covers (at least the two I tried) did not fit over the front splitter on the Fifty.

Can't beat that silver and black combination. Beautiful car and you won't be disappointed.

Outdoor car covers are a bad idea.
The sides act as air pumps and force particles across the paint. No matter how tight you think the edges are, dirt/dust will get in and you will wind up with tiny, 1/2-1" scratches all across your paint. If you can't garage it, cover it by any method that does not allow the cover to come in contact with the car. I learned this lesson the hard way.
