I put up the shade quickly. Does not sit out very much without car cover. Just showing what it looks like. It is a custom fit for sure.

Yeah, i paid like $30 for it. I just wanted something that custom fit the windshield. It does the job and was the cheapest I could find at the time.

I have a Subaru sunshade. It's a little more expensive than the one-size-fits-all variety, but it isn't a flimsy Wal-Mart special. Fits like a glove. The material used is nice and solid. Folds up for easy storage, and it would seem that it will last for the life of the car. Well worth the moneys IMO.

How did you do this? I have a subaru but still think it looks bad. Even though it's just a Subaru it seems kind of snobby to me.

Awesome sunshade though. I highly recommend it.

Thanks it is an awesome sunshade. A bit pricey, but probably the best out there for this car.. I removed the lettering by using lacquer thinner and rag. Just a small amount of thinner and using different "clean" parts of the rag. The silver is very durable and did not melt, but the black was just like a lacquer spray paint on top. Very easy to dissolve and wipe away..
