It is my ladies F56S, what is necessary is defined by her needs.
Her color choice may even be different than yours, imagine that.
Mud Flaps may be next.
STAY TUNED!!

I agree with that! When my wife said she didn't like the color of this shade -

I told her I would spray paint it any color she liked!

I admire your initiative.

This is a universal. Not just for cars. And the longer you're together / married / partnered / whatever... the more second nature this truism becomes.

There are two factory window shades , one for the Countryman & Paceman.

And one for the R50 R52 r53, R56 R57 R55 models 82110035953. Nothing yet for the F56. The R50-R55 might work, its been tested below.

Have you tried either one of these in an F56? I had ordered one from a national vendor and they sent one for an R56 (because they weren't bright enough to know there was a difference). It would not get anywhere near the window at the top because the rear view mirror base on the F56 is apparently much larger than that on the F56. If you can verify that either of these don't suffer the same condition, I will gladly buy one.
