I wasnt sure if you were joking but I thought it would be funny anyhow. It`s 6am so the flash is in order.

Poorboy, Thanks. I actually have allot of your stuff in my arsenal. Its been a favorite of mine since I tried Nattys. S+W, Bold NBright, and Trim Restorer have been most impressive to me especially BNB with RWL!

Aloha,
Robert

No, I am not trying to be a joker!! ;) I really am interested in looking for a "form fit" cover for my truck. Who makes yours? Where`d ya get it? What`s a general ballpark price? Easy to use? ANY info would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, and it looks great!

This one is an Evolution4 (http://www.autoanything.com/products/product_gnn.aspx?p_id=1012&se=evolution_4_car_cover). I ordered it through AutoAnything. The item itself was $145 and beats all the Factory covers out there. I previously had the Ultraguard Car Cover (http://www.autoanything.com/products/product_gnn.aspx?p_id=1014&se=ultraguard_car_cover) but found that it would cause microfine scratches (swirls) in the finish. So I decided to give a softer material a try.

Old Cover:
PROS: Heavy Material, Easy to handle in the Wind and folded very compact in the trunk.
CONS: Material felt harsh against the paint, noticed more frequent marring.

New Cover:
PROS: Better Door Ding Protection, Hopefully wont swirl the paint
CONS: Lighter material, Wind will challenge take off and removal, takes up more room in the trunk unless you stuff it in a bag.

My wife just left her job to be a stay-at-home mom for our new son. Now that the car wont be driven into town daily I wanted to get her cleaned and covered. :) Next to try one of those stone chip kit thingies because I`ve got about 15 marks on the hood.

Aloha,
Robert

Thanks Robert, I really appreciate it. As far as the Langka kit goes, I have the Mother`s one, but I would like to try the one Dwayne has. It`s like a super deluxe kit. And yes, you can get very good results with them. :bigups Hope you get them worked out!
