Been using the Genuine Subaru one for nearly 2 years and its still awesome. It can be a little tricky to put up w/ someone in the passenger seat but the fit is perfect.

I'm still debating if I want to get an Eclipse Sunshade (Its a retractable sunshade) for my car or not. It was great in my old car, but not sure how I feel about having it in the smaller BRZ.

I recently picked up the OE Subaru shade and used some straight lacquer thinner to remove the black Subaru lettering. It worked perfectly without harming the silver coating. I would suggest trying a small spot out of the way before applying to lettering. Not all thinners are the same..
