Default Car Cover

Check out my new car cover!

I have been using the crossfire up till last friday but I wont drive it with snow still on side roads and parking lots. What should i use to get the snow off without scratching the paint? are the bristles on my ice scraper too stiff? Am i being too protective?

Your Car cover sucks!!

You might want to go out and buy one of those really soft bristle push brooms to brush that much snow off! Hopefully you won't get that much snow again soon! looks like you need a shovel too!

I think I can help you; how's this for timing; a friend just sent me a video taken in the Great White North recently and it provides helpful tips on how to scrape the ice and snow from your car. There's only one thing you have to watch out for.........oh, you better see the video first.........

Go to my Gallery and select Multi-Media "Ice Scraping"

Enjoy.

Nice!!

On another note where did you get your customs exhausts made up? they look and sound awesome.

On the car cover front I purchased a Barrier Semi-Custom car cover from Walmart has a 10 year warranty has a few layers of ENDURA fabric and fits like a glove (SIZE 2), really good quality. Was $60 and the snow just blew off it, took the cover off tonight and the car is gleaming while everyone else's is icy and salty :-) Love it!!

Just went to a plain ole Brake and Muffler Shop.. Told them what I wanted, played with it a bit and finally got the sound that I wanted.

hmmm... looks like it provides plenty of insulation.
Headed that way tomorrow - at least the Pittsburg area. Hope the roads don't still look like that.
