Need a car cover for a 1990

[So Cal Vette Girl]

Hi- new owner just got our 1990. Ordered an indoor/outdoor cover that was suppose to be a custom fit. It fit perfect in the front and over the side mirrors but did not fit the back end. Thanks.

Thanks.Sounds like you received a cover for a base C4. You'll need one for a ZR-1 which is 3" wider in the rear. Most of the Corvette aftermarket suppliers carry them.

Welcome and congrats on your 90 as stated above you need a cover made for the ZR-1s wide butt.

Welcome to the "Brotherhood (and sisterhood) of The Beast!!"

I just did a quick scan of my favorite sites - NOT MUCH in the way of a ZR-1 specific cover, EXCEPT for the "BUBBLE" type that enclose the car in...well...a plastic bubble.

Someone may have a lead on one, OR you might have to have one custom made. (Guess we'll see what turns up - then we'll ALL know! :dancing

If you only require an indoor cover Walmart sell the BURGE brand. Size # 3 fits my 90 like a glove.

FWIW: The Covercraft Evolution 3 cover from MA I used
on my '89 L98 fits my ZR-1 just fine... Had it for about 12 years,
still in good shape. Used indoors...

I have both a ZR-1 and a regular C4 cover from Wolf both fit but the rear is snug on the regular cover.

Didn’t think to compare the cover during the short
period I had both cars. Could very well be tighter, but not by much?
However, the garage looked pretty good with 2 Vette in it!
The Bride was upset that she lost HER garage space for the short
period it took to sell the 89...

Here's the link: Mid America Motorworks (https://www.mamotorworks.com/Corvette/search)(their web page didn't take me to the ZR-1 covers - first time I tried it. Made by Carcover Evolution as mentioned.)

Looks like the subject of covers has been addressed. So I will simply say welcome to the club!

Ive got a car cover for a base model and it fits my Z fine,I don’t think there is much of a difference in the fit.

I use a C5 cover

Welcome aboard!

I've been using covers from this company (http://www.carscover.com/1991-Chevrolet-Corvette-ZR1-Car-Cover-SP5008.html) for several years with good results - sort of. They used to carry an outdoor, waterproof cover that came in gray or black. I found the gray one did not line up with the mirrors but the black one did. I see they have changed their product line so am not sure which or what may fit. Still, I have two of the black ones and each has held up well to three VA summers and winters.

I used to surf San Clemente when I was in the Marines out there, but that was along time ago.

The car cover I use on my Red/Red ZR-1 #1476 is from:

It is custom made for the 1990 ZR-1 by Intro-Tech (IGA-CVCO90) for $150. It is silver and I added the embossed ZR-1 logo below to it for an extra fee, but can't recall the fee.

Anyway, you have other options as other members have suggested.

I had a friend give me his C5 cover. Ok for the garage. Too loose for outside.

Just got one of these for outdoor for my 1990. Fits nicely with "ears" for the mirrors, and elastic around the bottom for snug fit. Was about $300 with shipping. When you are specifying it on the website their is a drop down option for ZR-1.

Thanks for the recommendation.
