Half car cover recommendations please?

I got up early this morning to find my car absolutely scratched to bits by birds which had been attacking it.
I'm having it detailed tomorrow to get rid of the existing scratches caused by the dealer in prep.
Has anyone used a half cover they could recommend which covers the top half of the car and easy to get on and off?
Should only have to use it for a few months whilst the local birdlife are courting,apparently the males see their reflection in the glass and paint as a competing male. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Chris, don't bother getting it detailed, for the cost of just one detail you can buy all the relevant stuff yourself and do it yourself Thumbs Up

Once you have it any little mark you find you can do yourself without paying someone an arm and a leg Very Happy

Seriously, I used to pay people to do my cars but it's easy peesy to do, I've even got a DVD you could borrow to show you how to remove the scratches Thumbs Up

The scarf and shoe bag are working fine he attacked my back door this morning apart from either shooting him or catching him in my landing net not sure what do do other than completely cover it for a couple of months !!

Unfortunately it needs machine polishing and I can't afford to risk doing that myself and making it even worse.
Ive already bought £250 worth of detailing stuff and will do it myself once the scratches are gone. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.

Machine polishing is easy! I was apprehensive also but it really is simple, and with a dual action machine there's no chance of damaging the paint Thumbs Up

Im not as brave as you and hes coming in the morning so a bit late anyway.
Im hoping he brings some halogens to highlight the state its in and does some before and after photos.
Its booked in for two days so it should look superb but then need something to keep the birds off it. MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.
