Lately I have seen many people question the fitment of OEM Acura Integra car cover on a Type R. The anwser is YES it does fit.
I tought I will clarify it for everyone by taking some pictures

I hope this helps out

Front bumper fitment.

Rear hatch with spoiler fitment.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the OEM car cover isn't water proof, its only made to be a dust cover. I remember I was searching the archives for some car cover threads and came across two companies who make custom car covers and they have one ITR's. I think it was called California Covers or something like that?

Edit* Found it, http://www.calcarcover.com/

I need a good cover thats waterproof and durable, and will clear a mugen gen 2 wing.

kaj · 12-31-2007, 08:12 PM

i use a cover every night because dust = scratches in the paint when you try to clean it.
then, in the morning, i used spray wax and a micro-fiber towel.
as a result i ONLY wash my car when we get rain or something.
any water spots from puddles, bird crap, etc = spray wax.
the cover is great. the dust that settles on the top of the rear bumper cover is the worst of it all. i still have scratches on mine from when i used to not have a cover and used a "California Duster". i learned my lesson.

oh. i got an aftermarket cover so it would be water proof. about $130 at Autozone.

Doesn't say 'Integra' in red though.

To the OP, thanks for posting pictures, clears up a lot of questions about the car covers.

tony4311 · 01-01-2008, 09:09 AM

These are the people that make the oem cover.
http://www.block-it.com/home.htm

A number of car makers use them for the oem covers.

Parada · 01-01-2008, 09:28 AM

Thanks!

That is some good info...

Does anyone know which product line of BlockIt car cover material the OEM cover uses? From the pattern imprinted on the cover, It looks like the Noah model line. Is there any information with it that states that this is an indoor or outdoor car cover?

00TypeR1071 · 01-01-2008, 10:51 AM

Here is the info from the OEM cover:

micmic · 01-01-2008, 11:00 PM

Thanks!

That helped me make the decision of which cover to get. With free shipping from AutoAnything, the DustTop (indoor only) car cover was the about same price ($185 shipped) as the OEM from Len and breathes better than the Technalon. Hopefully, the caR should never have to be stored outside...

Edit:
Here are some helpful links if you are in the market for a car cover. The OEM looks to be made of the Evolution model line from Technalon Block-It material.

where can i pick one up. acura dealer??

lustedp · 01-02-2008, 12:53 AM

I went to my parents house during the xmas break, and was cleaning out my stuff (i've long since moved out, and long since sold my integra). I found an OEM integra car cover, same as the one in the original post that I had bought on honda-tech few years ago in my garage.

I've sold my car a long time ago, and never got to use the car cover, its still in the bag how I received it from the previous owner (who, if i recall, was on the ITR forum).

Anyway, if anyone is interested, I'll sell it. It's the OEM one... PM me if interested.

You can buy one from the dealer but it will cost you about $160-$190,
I found mine on eBay and I paid $81.51 (BNIB) and picked it up locally the next day
