Car cover thread

Kidscollege$ · 02-16-2016, 09:01 AM

I ordered this yesterday. Will report on quality and fit and also some pics...appears to be similar to California covers, except no mirror pockets. Plus less than half the price.

I just park my car weekly and drive it every couple of weekends. Would like to cover it. Do you guys ever get swirl marks from removing/installing the covers?

Kidscollege$ · 02-24-2016, 07:50 PM

Ok here is my $139 cover...what do you think? It appears to not be long enough on the sides? The mirrors are folded in. I have 30 days to return...I am not opposed to buying a California cover. I just could not tell much between this and their advertisement? And this was $200-300 cheaper

The material for this is not bad...just not down with the fit. This will be for indoor storage

This is from Carcover.com

Kidscollege$ · 02-25-2016, 08:33 AM

yup, after looking back at the california covers I am sending mine back and getting one...any deals out there on the California covers?

Apparently the covers work and they're about $300 or so.. it'll be garaged, but for when I'm out and about or at work.

So did you find a cover? I'm in Colorado and we get some hellatious hail storms in the spring. Still have a couple of months before I pick up the car in Germany, but starting the research now, so appreciate whatever insight you can provide.

This is OEM BMW E90 car cover. Fits like a glove I paid $175.00 for it. Part number is 82110421547

Enough of the car covers already! My Carcraft cover and C-Tec battery tender comes off today and my M4 comes out of its four month hibernation! Spring has sprung in Michigan.

Second than brotha! Hibernation ended for me on Tuesday

See you around the 517!

Well, I kinda stopped caring because it sits in the garage until the weekend. So relieved I have a daily.

I may just do the same during that time of year.

I'm reviving this thread as it's almost hibernation time and starting to look for car covers. Does anyone know if the F80 oem cover 82152220528 is any good?

eRiggs5 · 10-08-2016, 08:33 AM

Likewise, I'm looking also.

Rooz · 11-02-2016, 09:40 PM

Any recommendations for a cheap garaged car cover? Just want to not have as much garage dust on the car

Adcampo · 11-23-2016, 05:54 AM

I don't like the OEM one with the wheel and car outline. Looking for a tight value cover.

Noah Block-It. I don't like the newer car cover with the car motif on it either. It's super cheesy. The car covers for the E9X M3 were made by Noah, and had an embossed "BMW" on it. The quality was awesome, so I'm sticking with Noah.

Is this indoor only? I wonder how this would work on the F82.

Rooz · 11-23-2016, 11:24 AM

Has anyone used Griott's temporary ones? I really just want something to prevent garage dust.

Rbezy · 12-01-2016, 01:53 PM

so how have the california car cover superweaves been holding up? thinking about getting one for outdoor use.

John dillinger · 01-22-2017, 12:23 PM
