Received my umbrella in the UK yesterday
(UK First?) after spending a week in Customs.
Fitted it today - Perfect - & much more substantial than I thought.
Cheers Perry!

How many would be interested?

So let me get this straight, you state on a vendors page about looking into having these made. Why would you do this to a fellow member and a vendor who has been making these for years? Cuda, you didn't cross the line you did a triple jump over it.

I know how I would feel Perry.
I guess Cuda911 doesn't need the regular cover because it never rains in southern California.
Would you consider making a batch in lightweight nylon for people who only want one as a sunshade?

Ah, ooops...I didn't really read the rest of this thread... just skimmed through it saw a bunch of people saying they want one, and no recent replies, so figured I'd see about getting it done myself to fill a void. Didn't mean to tromp on toes. So, instead, let me see about ordering one from Perry.

I will check into waterproof nylon, but I doubt if there's any nylon with a good UV rating.

Thanks, Perry. I looked online, and it looks like there are some good outdoor-rated UV-rated nylon materials for about $5-6 / yard. Seems to me that the umbrella covers would then easily fit into a small stuff-sack.
Wasn't trying to swipe any business from you, didn't realize you were still selling them. PM me your address, and I'll send you one of the 914 hats I'm making, for free, OK? They should be ready in about two weeks.

I received Perry's cover a couple weeks ago- it isn't any bigger than the service covers offered by Garold when folded up. Very nice quality and will be very easy to bring while traveling.

Andrew

Yes, I'll have another batch of the regular heavy duty covers, and a small test run of lightweight nylon. Between shipping time and my own schedule, it will be about four weeks. I'll post something on this thread, as well as pm everyone who posted they want a cover.

New to this forum, expanding my horizons from Pelican with my new baby (tangerine 71) These are AWESOME! Will need one for my 914 that I am picking up next week. Couple questions, do you have them in the reflective silver (like OEM outdoor)? Also, do you have the ability to make them for a 944 and a 911. The rain is not as big an issue for me in AZ as the sun. Putting factory cover on every time it they are going to sit outside for more than a couple minutes is getting old. Each of them, has a perfect dash...aim to keep it that way. :-)
Thanks!

PM's sent. I've got 9 of the regular heavy duty material Umbrella Covers in stock and ready to ship. We are in the process of doing a few from tent fabric and possibly rip-stop nylon. The tent fabric and rip-stop is not UV stable, so it would be best for occasional use only, but lighter weight. The rip-stop isn't really waterproof either.
Price is $130 shipped to continental US address.

Perry,
I've owned a regular umbrella cover for a long time; it is a must for outside parking. Since retiring, the car sits in the garage and needs a very lightweight dust cover. I like the idea of the rip stop nylon, please pm me with pricing and availability

Just received the new umbrella cover, this is so well made and weighs a pound lighter than my original umbrella purchased some years ago.

I don't have any on hand at the moment. I'll do another run in a month or so, if you can wait. I'll shoot you a PM when I have them in hand.
I'll probably make a pre-order post.
I'm also considering a limited run with a premium material that I've found.
