Default Used Nismo cover?

This is gonna be a long shot- but by chance does anyone have a used car cover specifically for the Nismo?

I will pay for rush shipping but not willing to pay price brand new- my car will be idle for about a months time and I don't have a garage. That being said I don't think the HOTT Texas sun beating down down on my car in one spot with dirt over it would be ideal in my head. So like i said ill pay for rush shipping- i need it by Thursday!!

Let me know please!

Also since i'm limited on time, think i could buy a car cover from a local store here a fit all one and tie it snug and tight that way i don't come back and see my car had covered with the other half flapping around aimlessly in the wind?

dude, ur best bet is just to buy an jumbo/oversized quality cover at a local auto parts store, and wrap it around tight at the bottom and wheels. preferably a cover with provisions for a lock.

I looked for a while.. though I may not have a Nismo, I have a V3 wing and a lip. Theyre expensive. If you got the cash yea... but if not do what these guys recommended.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't think Nissan made an OEM car cover for the Nismo Edition Z's... Maybe because the production run was so short... idk though.

no they didn't however, you can go on a few websites where their company has specifially made car covers for the Nismo. I called around a few nissans here as well as the main company-nothing

https://my350z.com/forum/nismo-350z/...aft-cover.html

this is the custom cover it think they may have done a group buy or something long ago before i had the nismo.

OK, things changed a little ill be storing the car inside my dads autoshop so ill just need a cover to keep the dust off. i went to local auto stores and all they have from local auto stores is a brand called budge:

http://www.budgeindustries.com/

and i opened the most expensive one they had approx 80$ and it seemed really thin and looked 1 layered with no padding to put against the paint i didn't know if it would be bad wind isn't a factor here nor rain or sun, so think this thin material with no padding be sufficient?

I have the budge car cover for my nismo and it's fine. I think I got the #3 or something. That should be large enough to cover everything including the wing. If it's going to be in a covered area, I'm thinking it'll be fine.
