Default Protective Fender Covers ?

For working on my Cobra I have a couple of the typical vinyl covers that are, ok. There are very large covers that go over both fender's and front end of most cars. Are there any that fit our Cobra's shape pretty well ?

What do you like ?

I have one of these for my CSX Shelby, very heavy duty and covers both fenders and front end.

I like these since they basically stick to the fenders.

I found him shortly after you posed the link. Looks pretty good and price isn't bad.

Thank GOD,....that's not a Cobra under all that.

At least you have the small,.....water pump to hose the garage clean.

Anyway, are those just moving blankets from like U Haul, Home Depot etc ?
I bought one and my wife said, "if that ain't cotton, it ain't going on Big Blue" !

I use large towels, beach towels and small blankets. I have a pair of Summit fender covers but have not used them in years. I like the towels better.

I fold the towels in half long ways. Wide enough to cover the top of the fender and long enough to go from the headlight to the windshield. That way they stay in place.
Double thick so I can lay tools on them with fear of scratching the paint.

This is the place I bought the fender protectors from many many years ago from the Good Guys show.
Ssnake Oyl Products
The web site doesn't show the Cobra logo, you may have to call or email them. They also make one that covers the entire front of the car.

Sorry, I meant to ask Scootter about the Ssnake -Oyl pricing.

I bought and still use my Ca. Car Cover from back in 2000. It's the padded indoor/outdoor. Great cover and very high quality, so I'll bet their fender cover are also. Nice price too.
