You can get a nice custom car cover for the 300zx, but I can;t remeber where I bought mine from. :(

There are a couple threads on here about nice car covers for the Z

I cover mine with dust..fits perfectly !

it was a custome cover, wasnt as strong as it was advertised. straps kept on breaking in the wind. They recon you needed to take it off in teh wind,,,, thats when it needs the cover most ffs.

 

just gona get a halfrauds one, when that breaks it wont cost an arm and leg to replace it ffs

I cover mine with dust..fits perfectly !

 

tehn you have your inside.... so its also covered with roof and walls.

I've used a Halfords universal jobbie on zed before...dont remember size though..but it fitted fine, had straps to hold it down, elastic ends..etc

 

It did unpeel itself at the front when it got really windy though...never blew away or broke straps though.
