Default One year owner of 2018 RCF and I need answers with some questions

1- what car cover that fit perfectly ( I have no garage and life in KSA with a degree of45 c) I tried some generic cover with RCF diameters but still didn’t fit correctly.

2-i need sun shade for the front ,side and rear , do you have recommendations that ship internationally

3- can you name the products you use to care for the interior (alcantara and the leather seats)

Thankfull for all of you, and this forum have been of great help for me since I bought my car

I can help with #3: For alcantara, Sonax Alcantara Cleaner is great. Usually I'll wipe away the area with a dry microfiber first (or vacuum) then use a foam application pad and apply. You can finish off with the Sonax alcantara brush to make the material look uniform (this step isn't necessary but it looks nice.

As for the leather, I just use Lexol leather Cleaner and Conditioner. I have heard these seats are fully sealed so there's not actual conditioning happening, but Lexol is cheap and easy to apply, so I do it anyways. Hope this helps!

I def think you need to go overboard on the uv tint, look for the highest TSER, do all four glass with the highest TSER

+1 on Sonax. It's what I use on the RCF and it's great.
