I tend to ask very stupid questions and sometimes I find that people like 
the answers, most times though they just think it is a stupid question. 
Here goes;



Why not place the sticker on the car cover and always use the car cover? 



Your car would love always being covered. Sure they could steal the car 
cover, but adding the sticker to it doesn't make it all that much more 
valuable and the cover would be easier to spot if did get stolen than the 
sticker. Let see there are N thousand cars with stickers in the lot and 
several handfulls of covered cars! I would rather search the covered 
cars. I think it would be next to impossible to remove the sticker from 
the cover as it is not smooth like glass and easy to scrape with a razor 
blade. This is an advantage or disadvantage depending on your 
perspective.



Do people mark their car covers with their name and phone # in case they 
accidently end up on someone elses car?
