Default Windshield sunscreens for GS

Has anyone found a perfect windshield sunscreen for their GS?

I've got a set (the kind the fold down into a circle) that I've had for about 10 years that are finally wearing out. The set I have now are patterned with big black and white cow spots on them... As stupid as it sounds I get a lot of compliments on them (people leave notes on my car) and I'd love to find a new set. No, I don't particularly like cows , these just looked the coolest when I was working out in Nevada a few years ago and my old car was burning up in the daytime. Now the metal rim is poking through the edge of one of them and I swear it glows red after sitting in the sun all day. I've been branded more than once.

I've pretty much given up on finding a replacement, so now I'm a little more practical with my decision. What do you use when you have to park your GS out in sun (if anything)? Where did you get it? Any link for online purchase to make this easy?

Any particularly cool screens that have "Lexus" or "GS" on them that fit well in our cars? I found some places that will make custom sunscreens (I thought about a clublexus sunshade, but the initial cost is fairly high).

I definitely like the hoop fold up ones over the cardboard accordian fold. Hey ethan, how about a Club Lexus sun shade? I am in.

Default Sun Shade

Well, I asked about a cool one about a month ago, and no really good leads / responses...

I was particularly looking for one that would fit the GS, and have the LEXUS logo on it. I did some searching and found Park Place Lexus in Houston. They have the roll up silver ones with the logo on it.

Send David an email at dbarrychuck@parkplacetexas.com
CL members also get 15% off. He was really cool and responsive. I had mine within a week, with free shipping.....

I don't know if they're available online, but here's the number for the one I use, I've had 'em on all my cars - they fit PERFECTLY.

1-800-777-6405

You just tell 'em your model of car, and they sell you one that fits exactly. The front side is like foil so it really reflects the heat.
