Snow/Rain Cover

pabex · 11-24-2019, 11:58 PM

Hey guys, I am getting my 2016 2ss on tuesday and since winter is coming up, I wanted to ask if you guys recommend any good covers that you use yourself? It has to be an outdoor cover! preferably waterproof for snow/rain.

no such thing as outdoor cover. they sell them but dirt and wind will still get under it and scratch the paint. recommend you find a place store it. inside put 2 un fitted bed sheets on it

I'd get an indoor cover to put under your outdoor cover...

A stretchy indoor should help keep dirt out and not flop as much.

Would you guys recommend one of those portable tent type of garages instead of covers ?

JCunningham · 11-25-2019, 09:12 AM

yes just keep the deep snow off it. put plywood or a tarp under the car if its going to be over dirt.

Just be sure to anchor it well to the ground.

The worst problem trying to use a cover in winter is the wind. No cover fits tight enough to not flop around on a windy day and will mess up the paint. Also you dont want any that will trap moisture under it

So would you guys just recommend leaving as it is ? Like outside, no cover or anything? I just cant store it anywhere atm.

JCunningham · 11-25-2019, 05:02 PM

leaving it as is will probably be better then putting a cover on it. keep it away from trees.

Could you send me a link and honestly that's what I might end up doing, so at least its easier to clean it of snow. Like i would just put it on when it snows
