Spare tire cover

Hello all you Bronco owner's out there! I usually hang out over in the Super Duty, Excursion, diesel & V10 "rooms". Ya'll have some nice digs over here!

Simple question, since ya'll have your spare tire hangin' out back, do any of you know of a company that makes custom spare tire covers? I am relocating my spare tire to a specialized receiver hitch carrier (from the interior) and would like to "design" my own. Thanks!

yo,
I heard of this firm from a friend who bought a few for his HVAC business; it is expensive.

Spare tire cover

I purchased a Bestop tire cover and took it to the local airbrush artist. He sprayed a mural of my choice (I took him a picture) and it turned out really nice. He also warranted it from fading and cracking. I think the total cost was about $200 for everything. The cover only runs $20-30.

Spare tire cover

Thanks to the both of you!

adelyser, the guy sprayed a vinyl cover of was it a hard cover?

AIM, I went to that site! I didn't think 70 buck was that bad considering the spare tire carrier is a whopping $429!! Gad! Oh, the price to get more space...I may forgo that whole thing and just get the puncture resistant tires I was looking at...

It's a vinyl cover. I prefer then over the hard covers.
