What is the difference between the R cover and the base GT350 cover? I have a R cover that I might want to sell. Its opened but never used. I might want to get something softer to put on the car. The material of it makes me nervous.

The R cover has a little extra slack for the larger rear wing and front splitter. I think you could manage to get either cover to fit either car, though.

PS - the material is a little rough and it does pose a rick of scratching if the car isn't 100% clean. I only cover it after a wash before any prolonged storage (more than a few days) so the factory cover is fine. If I covered it more often, I'd use something plush...especially in the garage.

I'll let you know if I decide to part ways with it. I want one like I had for my 99 RT/10 Viper and 2012 Boss. Both were very soft to the touch, especially the viper cover. It was made of some type of fabric. I believe the boss one was also a similar material. This one for the 350R feels like it should be used to make a tent. It feels hard and scratchy to the touch.

I've got a covercraft noah cover that is exactly what you describe. I keep my cars in the garage and I don't need that kind of overkill. If you are interested in a swap, let me know. I've used it on my 350R and it fits just fine.

I've been looking for an extra one since page 1. That's fine though I guess.

I like to disassemble things.

I couldn't get my non-R factory Ford cover to fit my car once I added the R splitter and wing(C2C). I was never a big fan of the "scratchy" style cover that Ford carried anyway and got a custom Covercraft. Night and day difference.

Thanks Harry!

PM inbound. I will try to talk you out of doing this because I know you are a collector. If its on the sticker, it should stay with the car. ;)

I have a new, unopened, in box R cover that came with my 350R (it was someone else's special order car that backed out, so I didn't have a choice about the cover) for sale in the classifieds here.

Shoot me a PM if anyone is interested.

Mike

ETA: This has been sold.
