Does anyone have a recommendation for a fender cover, that will not scratch paint and tools will not slip off? It will be used on a 1963 Corvette. Thanks for you help.

Re: Fender Cover for 63 S/W
My wife made some fender covers using heavy flannel material, about 4' x 5'. Work great, can fold up for even more padding. I don't place tools on the fender, poor practice "inviting" a problem.- Top

Re: Fender Cover for 63 S/W
The NCRS cover doesn't have the creases in the correct spot for a mid year.
I purchased the silicon yoga mats and use them. They stay put.
One can cut one in half and have one for each side, although a bit short of what I prefer.
Or purchase two and cut the extra off on end and use them for in the door jams if you have to do any under dash work.
I love them and you can pick your color. 68"L x 24"W and 1/4

Re: Fender Cover for 63 S/W
Exercise caution with using fender covers like these "mat" Fender Covers with any of the modern paints.
At the Detroit Regional there was a freshly paint base/clear C1. Mat fender covers were used.
When the mat fender covers were removed, there was a cross hatch pattern in the paint.
No they were not NCRS fender covers.

Re: Fender Cover for 63 S/W
I have had not paint issues with mine.
Although they were not used on fresh paint. It was six months old before I pressed the covers into service.
I have left it on for a week with out issues. If you have fresh paint anything can be an issue.
Full disclosure my paint is base coat, clear coat.
Caveat emptor.

I have a couple of old terry cloth bathrobes which I prefer to anything else and they're large enough to double up on the fenders...- Top
