It is a gorgeous cover and it fits perfectly! I will admire it on my GTS while in my garage. I am not sure about having it on outside during poor weather or even bird shit. It may turn into a big expensive chamois Maybe someone can clarify the resistance to elements in this cover.

Correct. I purchased an outdoor cover from IND. The black one shown is an indoor cover.

At least cheaper than indoor cover and complete different material.
Saw this sample so far only:

Less than the in door one so I pulled the trigger. $1250 out the door.

If removing the rear wing for non-track days, will a regular M4 car cover work or will the front air dam interfere? I ordered an assortment of different nylon hole plugs to see which is easiest and watertight.

I recommend ordering the cover made for the wing so that you can still cover the car when installed. When the wing is not in place you will just have some extra material.

Here are photos of the Silver cover with Acid Orange lettering. Ignore the 3D front bumper

I spent a lot of time researching this.
I looked at IND covers and while fantastic too expensive for my taste
I spoke with California car cover but they needed dimensions of the wing which I sent them but in the meantime I found the microbead car cover on the BMWCCA website and decided to order the fleece cover for a relative bargain compared to others
Though it doesn't look as great it fits very well
Only part that is not covered is rear diffuser and tailpipes😀

Can look at microbead car cover website (microbeadcarcovers.com)
Several different types - fleece was on sale so I choose that one for indoor cover
They don't have specific cover for M4 GTS
Picture on website was an M4 so I went with the 4 series cover which was pictured on the M4 and it fits fine
I am happy with purchase

That M4 GTS car cover is sick. I love the ///M logo, but I also feel like covering a car in public with the logo like that just might invite unwanted attention.
