    Winter storage cover for E28?

    I'd have to agree with Rod. It's a nice product, pretty cheap (particularly if ordered during the Winter) and the people were great to deal with. 3 Winters and it will have paid for itself relative to shrink wrap. Ours is the new style that covers the toe rails and modified stanchion raps...
