I got my Covercraft car cover yesterday and it was like 6-7 inches too short on all sides, not only that, a super tight fit. I was very careful not to put too much force on the panels.

I buy car covers all the time and this is the first time I got a cover that was made wrong and induced haze on the bumpers just from one gentle test fit. I know it is from the cover because I recently detailed the car and there was zero swirl especially not ones that run vertically.

I spent a good hour polishing out the haze and re-polymering. Sent pictures to them for full refund. Horrific experience for my poor car. :crazy:

I ordered the Covercraft UVS100 windshield shade, and the fit was poor (I partially blame the tiny sun visors in the Supra). Had some back and forth with customer service, I provided measurements, etc. but eventually the 3rd one they sent is satisfactory. Never had that issue before but they made it right.



After that, I decided to try CoverKing for a car cover. I got the “monsom plus” model. It is a snug fit (by design, indoor/outdoor cover), especially on the front of the car, but I haven’t noticed any scratches or marring yet. Only used it a handful of times.

Which version of the cover craft? I ran a few of their evolution Version and it was like Oem fitment and lasted super long. Until cats got ahold of them. lol
I forget the name, but it's the standard indoor/outdoor use, silver color one, custom fit for Supra that runs $250-300.

I've never had this kind of problem with my other car covers..

Knowing I would mess this up (and I did) I bought extras at the time of order.. and fixed the Supra caliper decal so that it is straight this morning. Ended up using a small right angled pick tool to apply onto the caliper to get the angle just right.

Now I can take a nice nap.
