Car cover
What car covers do you guys use? My garage is packed and when I'm driving another car I have to leave the F90 outside for several days in a row. Birds seems to love my bluestone color and attack it non stop. I never use car covers but I'm gonna have to bite the bullet now.

Coverking. I had one for my G30 when I was away for a few months and it fits the F90 just fine. The tail end is a little snug because of the pro spoiler but if I put it on first it is fine. ProTip, if you have the mirrors folded it is easier to put on the cover.
https://www.coverking.com/high-uv-pr...mpetition.html I don't recall when I bought it but it works really well. I was mostly concerned with the sun beating down on the car which is why I went with this version but it breaths well in the rain too. I also bought one for the Z4 that we keep in the garage. That one is focused on ding protection in the event a broom handle or something silly falls on or grazes that sucker.

You clearly need a larger garage. I have a twelve bay garage and am adding two more bays this spring. JK. I do love to see posters who have huge houses with large garages. One can wish? We have three bays. Good enough. I have my Ferrari Enzo in the third bay. I only drive it on July 4th. If it's not raining.

I have this one - as my garage is just too small for my F90 and/or 550i. Plus, my wife uses the garage as a storage unit.

I fully agree! Both the Birds and especially the Bees constantly shit on my Bluestone F90 daily. And now the pollen count being high here in Orlando, it’s practically impossible to keep it clean. Just a couple of hours after un-covering the car, it has a very visible yellow coating.

I think BMW actually makes a really cool looking one for the M5....saw it on the BMW Performance site (was like $500, though).
EDIT: This one.... https://f90.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1620182
