Car cover for 3rd gen?

Unfortunately my Rex has to sit outside at home and at work so I'm thinking that a car cover would be a wise investment. I would love to have a RX-7 specific one if such exists. What is everyone else using right now? What materials should I look for or stay away from? Where would be the best place to find them?

Thank you in advance,
~Kris

FD cover

I use a cover I purchased in 1993 from Mazda for my then RX 7 and it fits my now RX 7 well. After 11 years it stills looks new and is made of a blue material.

There's someone selling one on ebay. There's a link to it in the 3rd generation Parts for sale section on here.

get one made of evolution or noah fabric. custom made one cut for your vehicle is about $200 at many cover company including california car cover company. these have a cutout for the mirrors and would be better fit.

The OEM cover is only 1 layer of fabric and not water proof. Noah is 3 layers and evolution is 4 layers. car covers are good ideas except when you live in windy area, they can come off even if you tie a cord on the bottom.

7racer, they have a 'special parts' section in the submittal... I imagine that it would fit the front just fine but you'd have to contact them and explain the spoiler in the rear properly... I've been thinking about that for when I convert over.
