Front sunshade?

Scott2.0 · 09-05-2017, 10:56 AM

I recently bought one of these for our X5 and it's great. It's BMW's version of the Covercraft UVS100 (only got the OEM one because it was cheaper). Does anyone know if BMW makes one for the i3? I cannot find the part number. Anyone running the Covercraft one? How is the fit? Thanks!

I got the heatshield one and it fits perfectly.

Thanks. Is it flimsy or solid? I've always liked the Covercraft ones (BMW OEM) as they are firm and really easy to put up and fold away.

It's in between. It's not as solid as the oem but it isn't flimsy. There's almost no gap and it reflects more sunlight and keeps the car cooler than the oem.

I bought a sunshade from Intro-Tech. I like it very much except that it's cutout includes the Tech Package optical sensor so it lets a lot of sunlight in around that. Can you post a picture of the Covercraft sunshade for comparison purposes?

Thanks in advance.
