Abstract: Protective covers for use on vehicles. The covers include a front portion having a front panel, attached hood panel and front side panels. The hood panel and front side panels are adapted to allow them to be detachably connected along the outside edge of the hood panel, thereby providing essentially continuous coverage of the hood and lower front side walls of the vehicle. The front side panels extend backwardly beyond the rear edge of the vehicle doors to overlap with a rear portion of the cover. The rear portion of the protective cover includes rear side panels which extend down the rear exterior side walls of the vehicle. The rear side panels are preferably connected together at the rear and provided with adjustment so that the rear side panels can be drawn taut against the vehicle. Intermediate portions can also be included where the vehicle being protected includes four doors.
