drift_bear Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Just done a quick search and couldnt find anything usefull, since the weather up here is starting to turn and get really cold/wet/awfull, does anyone know where i can get a car cover from that will fit my supra? its not stock bodied so i was thinking it would need to be quite large, it has do-luck front, trial rear with a TRD spoiler. any info/websites would be great!

hp006 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I had a halfrauds xl cover didnt fit my car and that had bomex kit and standard spoiler I brought one like this and it fits perfect http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Supra-93-02-Outdoor-Fitted-Car-Cover-/310352640045?pt=UK_Car_Exterior_Accessories&hash=item484275782d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I want a Car Cover this winter as well, I was thinking of taking the TRD spoiler off and getting one for an Aston Martin or Jaguar. I reckon that they must be bigger than a Wide Arch Supe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very lightweight and a perfect fit with a storage bag and mirror pockets, as per Porsche photo. Wide body will probably only raise the skirt a little, ooer!

I reckon that they must be bigger than a Wide Arch Supe I know that sat next to eachother, an XKR is huge but I'd still go for a ChartOneAuto. An important thing to consider is scratching whilst fitting and these are very light and easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to go into Exeter tomorrow, so I think I will pop into the Aston Martin/Jaguar sales place and see what they suply to there customers............be interesting to find out how much the rich Aston owners are willing to pay:blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Jazz and I both have http://www.carcoon.co.uk for our Supras and they both have a TRD wing. A great investment - its like putting your supra in a time capsule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Jazz and I both have http://www.carcoon.co.uk for our Supras and they both have a TRD wing. A great investment - its like putting your supra in a time capsule I was reading through, and was going to say a carcoon would be a much better idea, more pricey but can be got for good prices used on ebay. Trouble with covers is that you really need a good quality one, i wouldnt say a halfords one. Needs to fit properly, be softly lined inside and can be tied down securly. You need to make sure that its only covered up when completely clean to stop dirt scratching it underneath. Most, supras do have soft paint as well. I was at the owners house this week who's 430 i have just done, and he has bought a large car length rectangular tent with filters and fans at either end like the carcoon style, looked good.

SupraStar 3000 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Agreed. To have a cover thats has air between the fabric and car's surface makes such a difference. It really stays clean. Its nice to know the cars battery gets a charged too and at 2p a day to run, its not too expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drift_bear Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 this is the reply i got from mplavery regarding the halfords XL cover Hi mate Really happy with mine, nice snug fit but not too tight...You also have two strapes that go under the car as well to stop it the cover from blowing off..

drift_bear Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Just found out that the cover from halfords fits the body style that have and also over the TRD spoiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cossack Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 ive got a really good one for sale that was tailor made for a wingless supra from the states, its brand new and never used (just tried on once to see how it fitted and it fitted like a savile row suit!), red in colour, ill find out a few more details if anyone is intrested, its an outdoor cover btw, got it to cover the car when i was building my house but got a spot in a garage so never ended up needing it! cost me a forture from what i remember but have to say it is top quality tbh!
