Title: Fender covers?
Post by: Raymond on July 17, 2005, 08:26:51

As opposed to throwing Grandma's old army blanket over the fenders when working on the engine, who's got some good, oil resistant covers that don't slide around a lot?

Hi, Ray,
I've got these which work well.
There is a smaller one without the lip that folds into the engine bay, but has a magnetic strip which holds it to the fender. I prefer this design.

Griot's Garage has something similar which I use preferentially. Soft cotton, magnets, & pockets to hold small tools etc.I also use an old bath towel under these. A quick Google will provide contact info.-JP-

How about purchasing the factory blue fender cover with factory seat protector  from our tool friends at Samstag tool sales in Tennesee, Just ask for my friend Andrew. (215)-735-3388
