Hail Protection?

Hey everyone, I moved to TX a few years ago from Canada. My plan is to order an F80 later this year, but I do worry about the amount of hail storms we have been getting here in TX, especially recently. Besides covered parking, any ideas out there on how to protect your car if it is parked outside? This will become more important for me when I am driving a $75k car vs my current $35k car!!

It would require some foreshadowing and planning, but this is an option:

throw a quilt and a hard canvas tarp over it in a pinch, garage or covered parking is your best option though.
