Bmw F21 car cover
Hello,
I'm about to receive my new car in a few weeks time and thinking of buying a car cover for it. Since my car will be parked outside 50% of the time and I work at an airport, which is quite a nasty environment for cars. Have any of you got any experience with car covers? I've heard people say it does more bad than good to the cars paint.. Especially in windy oudside conditions where the cover might scratch over the cars surface. I'm guessing a good fitting cover must be better so probably best the OEM. Or does anybody know good alternative brands/products? Thanks for your replies!

Go for the tailor made cover offered by BMW! Since I always park indoor I have no need for this myself, but from what I've heard it's a very soft fabric touching your cars surface. So it should not be harmful as long as the car is reasonably clean
 Besides it looks really good. A nice side effect it is!
