Default New California Car Cover - does this look right?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/a4org/2000/pgtt-cover.jpg"></center><p>Why is the antenna "sock" so large for such a small antenna? The mirror "socks" are also rather large. As I've never have had a cover before, is all of this normal? Seems to fit fine otherwise.

Default Looks right to me. My roadster cover has a similar large antenna sock....

Don't know why they make it so large but it certainly does the job.

Default But the roadster antenna looks longer...

...than the mini-antenna on the roof of the coupe. I decided to just fold the sock inward a bit so as not to look too "phallic".

And yes, I *finally* got my cover in... a day after I had already left for vacation, but it was here waiting for me when I got home.

Default I have the Audi cover and the antenae condom is the size of the antenae . ..

It looks like they used the Roadster Condom on a COupe car cover! I would call them and point this out. It looks kinda silly

Take a look at 4 pictures I have posted on my site<ul><li><a href="http://larrytt.tripod.com/car_cover.htm">Audi Car cover on DarTTh</a></li></ul>

I was thinking of getting a car cover from these folks. What type of cover did you buy? It looks good except for the antenna condom!

No. The Audi cover fits much more snugly.

Default My Audi cover is a "snugger" fit and looks "cooler" too (imo).

Default I got the Noah version. Its all weather duty. I think PGTT got the same one.

It rained on it last nite and it dried up nicely. I wouldn't recommend leaving a wet cover on indefinitely, but this showed that it dries through totally.

Default I also have Audi cover...

It fits like a glove and looks very cool as well.
