I need a good sun shade!
My new job is in an office without a garage.
Houston heat really sticks it to you in the summer.
I didn't realize what a huge windshield my TL has until I bought a regular car shade and it was too short. Then I went and bought the bigger "Truck" shade, and it turned out too long.
I've seen a few Lexuses and Audis that seem to have shades made custom to the model of the car, with the logo on them and all. I can't seem to find the same thing from Acura.
You think a Lexus ES300 shade would fit the TL?

Yeah, saw autoanything.com before, but $45 is a bit steep. The $30 shade on autocarparts.com sounds better, but I still don't know.
I guess I am being cheap here. Gotta pay more for the custom stuff.

I got mine from eBay for a little less than $35 shipped. It's a lot thicker than the other one's I've bought in the past and it fits the windshield perfectly; don't even have to use the sun visors to hold it up. It's kind of expensive, but I think it was worth it. A good sunshade is a neccesity in Texas...

You can also check CanvasWorks for your heatshield. If I remember correctly they had a groupbuy last year but was closed out before I had a chance to order. Ended up getting a Covercraft.

Yeah I am not keen on tinting my windows. I'm just not a window tint kind of guy. When I give someone the finger in traffic, I want them to see it. Takes too long to open the sunroof (for maximum visability).
I think I'm going to have to go with the Covercraft.
