Cheaper than a garage

I followed the directions to a T and had to get it warrantied twice on my s2000. I had a NOAH on my truck as well and it started to do it right before I sold the truck. I believe the evolution fabric they sell is very similar so i'd steer clear of that as well. Pretty much, if it feels soft to the touch, it's likely that it will degrade with uv exposure.

+1 for the Covercraft HP. Super hydrophobic, Custom fit, easy on and off, relatively compact for storage, machine wash and dry. You do want to make sure there's no dirt between paint and cover, but I use mine on my daily since I don't have a garage or time to wash and wax very often. So far no problems with wear on the paint. I'd rather have a garage, but until (if) that happens, the Covercraft will do just fine.
