I still use my foldable front shade that I bought from Japan. Been 5 years and still works perfect. Can't tell the brand though, but I think you can buy similar ones from Amazon.

Btw my work parking doesn't have shades but a good shade makes a world of difference.

I've been running Covercraft for nine years. Great product.
Anyone know if a E70 X5 windshield is that different from F15 X5?
Wondering if I can reuse mine...

I have the OEM one. Perfect fit of course. Looks very similar to the Covercraft one based on the pic posted.

Yeah, I have a Covercraft in my E92 M3 and an OEM one in my X70d. OEM seems identical.

I have a factory cover thats 1 year old and in perfect condition. Will sell for $25 plus shipping. I think it was like $60 from the dealer.
