Hi all,

I received my CoverKings StormProof custom cover about 2 days ago and I must say, i'm very impressed by it's quality and fitment for my BMW Z4 M Coupe.

Just for comparison, I still have my Z4 roadster around with a standard "1 size fits all" 70$+ cover and you can see how much difference there is. :)

Since i fly around sometimes, I hate to come back to drive my car especially if there's a thin layer of dust / bird droppings which have stayed on for a few days. Urgh! Here goes...

STANDARD COVER

Antenna, side mirrors covers all don't fit right.

badfit5.jpg


Not a very good cover by any means...

My CoverKing replacement (in cool black) :D

Perfect fitment, tight and snug. Side mirrors, antenna, rear slope etc. all accounted for.

Side grommets (located directly in center of car) with protective layer to allow you to tie and lock cover down to prevent cover theft (standard covers doesn't have that option).

Coverking developed the widest selection of custom car cover Arofanatics.com - Arowana Community for Aro collectors around the World!, choosing to engineer it’s own fabrics instead of relying on “off the shelf” materials. Coverking has also pioneered the use of car cover fabrics in colors, two tone designs and reflective treatment.

Coverking is TS16949 certified and QS-9000 quality certified. Customers are thrilled with Coverking Custom Car Covers.

Coverking set out to create a superior Custom Car Covers in fit, material properties, looks, strength and features.

And because Coverking insists on using the fewest seams, Coverking Custom Car Covers look great![/SIZE]

[SIZE=-1]Pattern Fit and Design

cc_construction_small.gif


Car Covers use a lot of material, - 30 yards is common for most vehicles. In an effort to save material, some car cover manufactures use patterns which are “chopped up” into small pieces, and sewn together creating a patchwork effect. This method saves more than 20% of total material use, but results in car covers which look like patchwork quilts – seams everywhere. By having extra seams, risks of seam failures and seam leakage increase. In addition, the car cover looses it’s custom look and resembles a universal cover. Coverking has never compromised the function or fit of it’s Custom Car Covers to save a few yards of fabric. [/SIZE]

Materials

The qualities that make a Car Cover suitable for use depend largely on the fabric properties. Coverking designs it’s own fabrics, and has the world’s leading textile mills handle the manufacturing. Because Coverking has a team of engineers to specify exact material composition and construction, we are able to meet the most stringent material test requirements set out by the world’s leading vehicle manufacturers. Coverking does not use “off-the-shelf” fabrics, which are ill-suited to car cover needs. All Coverking outdoor Custom Car Cover materials are breathable – this allows moisture which is

trapped under the car to escape through the cover, preventing a “greenhouse” condition of condensation which may result in rust damage. Coverking pioneered colored materials and two tone designs for outdoor use. Unlike other car covers, Coverking Custom Car Covers are designed to withstand the color fading effects of the sun.

[SIZE=-1]Construction
Coverking Custom Car Covers are designed and cut on sophisticated CAD/CAM systems, which Coverking pioneered twenty years ago. All outdoor Coverking Custom Car Covers are sewn using double needle and overlapped seams, resulting in a durable, leak resistant seam which has a backup stitch if the main stitch fails. Coverking’s indoor Stretch Satin fabric is sewn with a “blind seam” which is ideal for use in the indoor, show-car conditions the fabric was designed for. Coverking Custom Car Covers have neoprene elastic tensioners sewn in the front and rear of every cover. Protected grommets for the optional security kit are sewn in the sides and covered, so as not to be visible when the car cover is covering a vehicle. All outdoor Custom Car Covers are sewn with heavy, wax coated thread. The thin coating of wax helps to seal the fabric where the needle pierced through, reducing the chance of leakage through the seam.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=-1]FOR OUTDOOR & INDOOR USE

[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+1] Stormproof™

[/SIZE] [SIZE=-1]

Coverking was overwhelmed after receiving test results of our latest design - Stormproof. The culmination of over a decade of material engineering, it has only recently been possible to manufacture the microscopic yarns which go into this advanced micro-fiber Custom Car Cover material.

Only one textile mill in the world was able to meet Coverking's specifications - and although challenged by Coverking's design, the results are truly a triumph for car cover users! Stormproof is UNCOATED and UNTREATED this means that even after months or years of use, it will have the same properties! Stormproof feels more like an expensive golf jacket, yet is tested to be the MOST WATER RESISTANT and (because there are no coatings) the MOST BREATHABLE. You can't go wrong with Stormproof - available in gray, black, red, wine, and two tone combinations with black sides.

[/SIZE] FOR INDOOR USE ONLY

[SIZE=+1] Satin Stretch ™ Custom Car Cover
[/SIZE]

[SIZE=-1]
Satin Stretch™ is an indoor Custom Car Cover fabric. It will fade if exposed to extended sun, and is not water resistant.

Satin Stretch™ is the SOFTEST fabric available, and has Lycra yarns to hug every contour of a vehicle. Blind stitching results in invisible seams - this is a SEXY car cover! Click here for more detailed information.[/SIZE]

From their website, they don't specifically list any of their covers as fireproof.

That said, on Silverguard Car Covers Information

They state that SilverGuard (a product from CoverKing) - ". Extensive research and development has been carried out to make the pu coating effective and the material water resistant, fire proof, highly breathable, mild proof, and UV resistant. And Silver Guard is eco-friendly and bio-degradable as well."

I've emailed them to ask whether their covers are fireproof. Will update this once they revert :)
 
Re: GROUP BUY - Custom Car Cover

I just received my covers direct from them. For R35 and Audi, great product.

Not just yet.

Each comes in a fairly midsize box and it would really depend how much interest i can derive from end of the day. That said, it would be cheaper rather than shipping it on your own.
