The big difference in price between the cheap covers (and tarps) and the good covers is due to the breathable fabrics. Never ever cover a car with a non-breathable cover. Condensation build-up under the cover can do lots of damage. I have the max cover from empire its a 3 layer cover made from Tyvek developed by DuPont. http://empirecovers-review.blogspot.com/ |

x2.. you'd be surprised how quickly rust can form. a friend of mine had his 93 civic hatch covered outdoors for a winter only to find rust forming everywhere in his engine bay.
