Nissan Car Covers: How to Get the Right Fit for Your Altima, Sentra, 370Z or GT-R

CoversCenter Premium custom-fit car cover on a sedan

Nissan builds a commuter Sentra, a full-size Maxima and a wide, low GT-R, and the classic Z cars and Skylines are different again. A cover that fits an Altima will bunch up on a Versa and pull tight across a 370Z's rear haunches. Here's how to pick a Nissan car cover that fits your exact car and the edition that suits where it's parked.

Step 1: Start with the exact model and year

Our Nissan car covers page lists 92 Nissan car models across 714 live year pages. Choose your model, then your year. The most-shopped Nissan cars are:

  • Altima (1993–2025)
  • Maxima (1976–2025)
  • Sentra (1982–2025)
  • Versa (2007–2025), with Versa Note listed separately
  • 370Z (2009–2025), plus a separate 370Z Nismo listing
  • 350Z (2002–2023)
  • GT-R (2009–2025)
  • Leaf (2011–2025)

Z-car and import fans will also find the 240Z, 260Z, 280ZX, 300ZX, 240SX, Silvia S13 and S15, and Skyline R32, R33 and R34. If your trim or body has its own listing, such as a Nismo or a Skyline GT-R, pick that one, because aero kits and wider fenders change the pattern.

Step 2: Check spoilers, mirrors and antennas

Custom-fit covers are cut around the body, so note these before you order:

  • Rear spoilers and wings: common on GT-R, 370Z Nismo and many tuned Silvias and Skylines. Choose the listing that matches your car's rear end.
  • Mirror size: later-year mirrors are often bigger than on older years of the same model.
  • Mast antennas: common on older Maximas, Sentras and Z cars. Remove or lower them before covering.
  • Racks and accessories: take off roof or bike racks so the fabric sits flat.

Step 3: Pick the edition for where your Nissan is parked

CoversCenter offers five editions. Starting prices and warranties below are taken from the live Nissan page:

Edition Best for From Warranty
Basic Indoor dust protection $79.95 3-year limited
Deluxe Outdoor moisture protection $115.99 5-year limited
Ultimate Outdoor and indoor $128.78 10-year limited
Indoor Black Satin Garage and show paint only $168.95 10-year limited
Premium Outdoor and indoor $178.95 Lifetime

Daily driver on the street or driveway: Premium or Ultimate for sun, rain and snow. Deluxe is the budget outdoor option.

Garage-kept 350Z, 370Z, GT-R or classic Z: Indoor Black Satin gives a soft finish for show paint. Basic is fine if all you need is dust control.

Both (outside in summer, garage in winter): Premium or Ultimate covers both uses.

Your year page shows which editions are available for that car and the exact price.

Fit tips for any Nissan

  1. Wash and dry the car first. Grit trapped under a cover acts like sandpaper.
  2. Let it cool down. Give a GT-R or Z car time after a drive so hot exhaust parts aren't touching fabric.
  3. Put it on front to back: hook the front bumper, pull over the roof, then drop it over the rear.
  4. Fold from the sides in so the inside lining stays clean for next time.
