Default STI Car Cover

What is everyone's take on car covers for STIs?

I've yet to find one that is tailored to the STI and was curious if someone had found one.

Yeah lol. The whole wing thing would be the reason for the thread. I think it would be awesome for them to design a retractable wing from the trunk cargo area, you know....for when you want to go really fast...

Here's a more specific link. Car Care, Detail Supplies, Garage Organization, Car Accessories - Griot's Garage 800-345-5789

It cost roughly $235 bucks but it's very nice. Since my car is stored for approximately 5 months out of the year, I wanted it to be covered.

I checked the site. It has similar drop down menus to the rest, but it didn't list the STI specifically, only the WRX.

I bought a cover too but also, mine does not have the standard shopping cart wing.

anyways...I do not use my cover very much. The only time I use it is when the car was just washed and it will be sitting in my garage when I am on a business trip or ??? It was pointed out to me after I owned the cover to not put the cover on when the car is dirty. Well, as soon as I drive my car out from the garage, it becomes dirty partially related to where I live. Point is, a car cover + dirt + wind = scratches.

I can confirm that my cover is designed for the stock rear wing.

Interesting. It does show the STI for the 2005, but not the 2007.
