Whats a good car cover for my 91Z?

I need something that will block out all weather, go over the wing and still earch the bottom of the bumper and cover the wheels if possible...

whats a good cover to go with??

I'd like to be around $100 or less.........

I bought mine from California car cover, they make one to fit over the high-rise spoiler all the way down over the bumper.. They have several different lines of covers, I ended up buying the Stormweave version and it seems to be working well in the snow.. I paid $183 shipped for it.. The Superweave is probably a little better bet for snow, but I was not about to spend 300$ on a car cover, and supremeweave, $400 hah - I don't think so

You can also check out http://www.covercraft.com . I haven't personally used one but they look like they make high quality car covers.

Well, I suppose that there may be a 100% cover out there, but as far as I know, they all breathe at least a little. Moisture WILL build up if it can't breathe, and that will surely ruin the paint, and promote any rust on exposed metal.

I have the California cover....don't remember which, but it cost about $120. I've had NO problems.
