Beyond just printing a different car, you could include strategic foam pads to change the apparent shape as well.
Park your fancy sports car --> cover goes on, looks like Joe's average hatchback. |
|
|
This is a very clever idea. It absolutely has to have
been thought of before right? |
|
|
Well, checked on line, only saw car covers with the
car it's covering printed on the outside. |
|
|
I'm thinking the natural thing to have would be a
Ferrari or a Lamborghini printed on your Volvo station
wagon car cover. |
|
|
A cover that makes the expensive car appear to be a clunker. A Ferrari or a Lamborghini pretend s to be the 20 year old Volvo or Chevy. Or an "A1 Security" patrol car. |
|
|
Or a Cadillac Cimarron made to look like a Chevy Cavalier. |
|
|
I carry my Smart Car around in a Range Rover - does
that count? |
|
|
The Delorean time-machine cover would sell like hot-cakes. |

True, you don't want to leave a fully functional time
machine on the side of the road. Probably best to disguise it
as an innocuous police box or something. |

That's friggin' brilliant. |
|
|
If your the police or private eye, A car cover you can see through from inside the covered car ( regardless of what looks like on the outside ) would let you sit unnoticed all day in front of a target house. Bits of one way glass or plastic. |
|
|
Thieves could case places unnoticed as well . |
|
|
This would be even better if the cover was opaque, suitably padded (or with inflatable pockets) as [neutrinos_shadow] suggests, and have the lower part of the distinctive front grille of a seriously top-end vehicle at the front - fabricated in rigid fibreglass, complete with glasswork, badging and chrome. |
|
|
Available in Audi Quattro RP, Bugatti Veyron, McLaren F1, Konigsegg, Gumpert, Zonda and a few others. |
|
|
Err, found a fake Ferrari one, sort of, see link. |

[afinehowdoyoudo] Planning a getaway are we? |
|
|
This would work as a practical joke from afar as well. |
