Would someone be so kind as to send me the code for the M2 cover from specialisedcovers? I'd love to get the same form fitting cover with the logo

Thanks in advance!

I notice this is the same part for the 2-series. Is the cover too tight at the wider rear fenders?

Does it come with a security cable or holes for a cable?

Not too tight on the fenders. It does come with holes for security cable (cable/lock not included).

As someone mentioned, Covercraft makes an M2 cover in several variants. Here is part # FS17958F4 which is a nice, heavy, indoor cover. $269

I know this is not a genuine or cosmetically advanced, but it did caught my attention since it can be used when you are parking somewhere outside that you would have to worry about yours get keyed or other possible damage.



Looks very convenient.

Here's my Specialised Covers "Prestige Elite Indoor Car Cover" on my M2. I've only just put it on my car so I don't yet know how it will fare when getting rain and snow horizontally but they say it's showerproof. I found it to be quite a tight fit so it'll need a hurricane to get blown off. Seems to be great quality but I'm a little worried that there's no cut out for the roof aerial as it's very tightly stretched and I suspect it'll end up making a hole after a while... I think, also, that I'd have preferred a cover that doesn't descend quite so much as one might end up getting rodents building a nest under the car.

Yes... it's not very showerproof at all unfortunately. On their brochure they show water beading on top of the cover. I haven't seen this in reality - the water just goes straight through. I think I may have wasted my money

The OEM cover is overrated

Covercraft has all the choices

Overrated? It's probably the cheapest option on the market right now and it does the job.

If you like a huge ///M on the front.


"Does the job" has a different meaning to everyone.

It does not have the huge ///M you are referring to (see post #76).

Doing the job ie: waterproof and dust proof.

You are probably confusing the OEM cover with another one more expensive.
