Car Cover Help
Hi Guys. I traded a 997 C2S on a new 997.2TT. Do you think my old car cover will work, or should I order a new one?

Thanks!

The OEM covers are pretty snug. Likely won't fit b/c of the TT's rear spoiler.

I'm afraid it won't work. You'll need a new one.

I ordered a Customweave California Car Cover, should be here tomorrow. It was expensive for a cover but they custom fit it to the body mods.

The indoor is made of a stretchy material. If the rear wing is similar to the oem then you should not have any problem.

It's similar but higher...like if the OEM one was in the "up" position...a lot of car covers stretch but not to that extent.
