Sun Shade...

Weird question, but what's the best sun shade to use for the G35 coupe? The one that I have just isn't working, plus it looks stupid. Any suggestions? PM or reply, thanks.

The best sun shade is a case of "photophobia" and tint... (Inside joke, right Daniel?)

Tint: Acquired.

I'm just trying to take really good of the interior, and keeping it from being hot as hell.

Not making fun, I can vouch for tint. I have used 2 different sunshades in my other car and it would still get melting hot inside. 10% on the G, problem solved.

I would also like to get a sunshade. I have 5%, which helps a lot. But my car either sits out in the parking lot of my appartment complex or the parking lot at the mall I work at. It can get pretty freaking hot. I cannot wait for my new apartment with a garage June 24th! Heck yes....

I poked around on ebay and found ones specially cut for the G coupe and Sedan...so I think that'll work.

I bought one online that's custom fitted. It fits so well it would stay up without the visors. It's made by Covercraft and I think I ordered it from Blue Ribbon Motoring. It keeps the car a lot cooler.

Just a suggestion, but check out the HeatShield by Canvas Works. They are custom fit to each model car and are very well made. I've been using them for years and I love them.

Ditto to Meatshackle. I also have the Covercraft one, it's good, but mine could've been fitted a little better, has about 3/4" gap on left and right side. For whatever reason, they cut out a little bigger hole for the rear mirror, but I have a panoramic one, so it was all good. Here's the link.

Oh, and you probably need to put it in the back floor when you're taking those turns hard cuz it will slide back and forth bumping the console and the door panel in the front. Later.
