Roof Cover

[Griffithskyle]

As winter is here and i only use the Z4 once a week i want to get a cover for it. I would prefer one that just covers the roof, has anyone on here bought one and if so where from? whats it like? etc.
Thanks

I have a full breathable cover from Classic Additions that I use in the garage (leaky roof). Seems to do its job well.

They also do a half cover just for the roof, but thats not breathable. Not sure I'd want that on a soft top as any moisture wouldn't get out and having the fabric kept damp all the time can't be good.

Thought about one to keep my windows frost free, but the thought of it moving around in the breeze, rubbing against my paintwork... nah.. I'll stick with the windscreen cover I have.

I have the BMW half cover, it was perfect for protecting my cars roof over the summer, as birds and tree sap are a big problem where it's parked. Now the winter is here, I don't really use it since the roof is almost always wet when I park up and the birds and tree sap aren't a problem any more.
It does a goof job of protecting the roof without having much contact with the cars body to scuff the paint. The roof does still get plenty of air to it, from the edges, it probably does more harm to the cover if you put it on when the roof is wet, as it will just get dirty on the underside.
