Sunshade Questions
So what does everyone use for sunshades? I saw in the other IS forums that some people use the accordian style Covercraft that is custom fit to the car. For some reason it says they don't have one for the ISF but they do for the 250 and 350. Am I wrong in thinking the dimensions are the same on all 3, as far as the windshield and that area are concerned?
This is the one I was looking at.

No Lexus logo on it. Perfect fit for the ISF, from the dealership. $29.99. My dealership honors the club Lexus discount, so I got an additional 10% off. I'm in Miami, this is a must have! And it certainly helps keeping the heat down a notch. I'm actually looking into a car cover since I have no garage. Just recently my F became my weekend ride. Not sure if the Lexus OEM car cover can handle the Miami rain and shine?🤔

I have always used this type:
I use 'em on my F and on my truck. I just like the way they work. I store them under my seat in the Lexus and behind the seat in my truck.
Early on I tried other types (including the one post by the OP) but have settled on the spring fold up type.

This is the one I bought back in 2013, it does a great job and I roll it up and store it behind the front passenger seat when I'm not using it.

get the oem exact fit from the parts department. They are double the price of the ghetto accordian ones but they are cut for your car, they are thinner, lighter, and cleaner looking. I have had them in all three of my Lexus sedans

I just bought this Covercraft Sunshade last month since I had extra eBay bucks laying around. It was like $60 total. It's definitely worth it though, I was using a cheap $5 sunshade that kept scratching my dash when I put it in place. Plus it didn't cover it correctly since it was a generic sunshade. This sunshade is an exact cut, it's hard like a cardboard and has microfiber texture on the back of it to prevent scratches on your dash. I was not aware Lexus dealerships carried this exact sunshade but I'm planning to add an F-Logo on it to make it "official". Lols.

I will be honest. I have had one from Autzone that was $25 and it works great. Have it in both cars. Just dont get the real cheap ones they fall apart easily. I have no complaints.
Now if you want one that exactly fits your car then you will spend the extra moolah.

I use this one: https://www.amazon.com/Sunshade-Heat...ield+lexus+isf
Fitment is spot on and the material is thick enough for it to stand up on its own without using the visors.

Nope. It just says only IS250 2006-2013 but I know for sure we share the same chasis as the 2IS so I took a dive on it. Here's the actual link.
