Anyway, they do have a 3-year warranty and it's a small shop that seems to stand behind their product and promises.

Modeler, thanks, my package seemed to arrive my home today finally. I'll check it out and try it tomorrow.
Just try to wake up this old thread and say thank you.

Modeler, thanks for organizing the group purchase of heatshield. I received mine and it works great. I can definitely feel the cooler interior. I just wished it wasn't so bulky. Thanks.

Does everyone like these?? I was also looking at getting the UVS100 Heat Shield.. Not sure which would be better.. Please post any details or pics you may have for this shade.. Your thoughts are much appreciated.

The shades are really good, makes a lot of difference in keeping the car cool. I ordered both front and rear. The only problem I have is the suction cups tend to come loose on the rear shade. Its an easy fix with some crazy glue. I would definately say get the shades, they fit like a glove..

Guys, this group-buy was over in 4 months ago. We welcome you guys discussing how they are, but please don't post any new group-buy info here or in this forum.
Please go to Blackmarket Group-buy sub-forum. Thank you.

I bought one of these as part of the group buy. Frankly I've been disappointed with it and don't use it much. It's very stiff and hard to maneuver into position. Previously I had a generic shade that was softer and very easy to use. This one works okay once in position, although it has a tendency to try to close up at the corners. Mainly it's just a pain to use.
Other people seem to like it, so you have to judge for yourself, and I guess the only way to do that is to buy one.

Months later, I still like mine and use it regularly, almost daily when it's sunny and hot. It takes a little work to get it into position, but its function is well worth the cost.

Attn: Those interested in a GB.
ARKK and I have talked to the administration of this site and have gotten permission to do a new and FINAL group buy for the canvasworks sunshade. It will be done in the Black Market section of the website under the group buy subforum, which is the proper place for this sort of thing.
Arkk has been in contact with Canvasworks and the tenative agreement is $15.50 plus S&H, thats almost 50% off the original price.
I need to talk to Arkk and Smitty some more, but once all the details are worked out, next couple days, I will post back here with a link to the new group buy.
In the meantime if you have questions or recommendations on the GB feel free to PM me, as Rets has said, do not post them in this thread.

GB has ended.... if Canvasworks wishes to become a vendor on the site, have the company contact me on here and then we can see about putting together a legit GB, we have paying vendors on the site and the free advertsing is not fair to them since they pay for advertsing.
Case closed.

legit...
if you guys want to post where you bought the sunshade from and tell other members how they can get it, then fine.... but there will not be ANY Groupbuys unless sunshade comes to see one of the Admins or me to pay for advertising... then we can set up a Groupbuy in the blackmarket Vendors section.

Doesn’t make much sense to stop this group buy after 7 pages and 5 months of people already getting it at a group buy price.. I understand you wanting them to pay for advertising, but also think this should be grandfathered in.. I’m not trying to stir up anything just feel new members should have the same chance to get a product that was already obtained via group buy.

Please...
Policies will always be amended by varied instances and circumstances. I work hard to make this thread unlocked ajar. This GB for the sunshade was history already, yet some information and feedbacks here would be the practical and enlightening sources for newcomers.
Please don’t put any GB query or qualm
here, the obliteration will cut it fine from now on. (Unless we get the green light, GB won't be allowed in 3G forums anymore.)
