Squueeeeeee! I can't wait! Will we get emails when they ship? I honestly can't remember if I had it shipped to where I work or not. Hmmm.

OK they all look great. I believe the "playfull" in Chili Red with blue eyes is mine. Can't wait to see it in the car.

Many of the Eyeshades have been packaged and are on their way to their respective MINI's! You will receive email notification when your shipping label is created. Here is another teaser pic of some of the Eyeshades:

I apologize if this question has been answered before--I didn't read through the whole thread. Will the folded shade fit on the floor of the hatch area, or "boot"? That seems like the ideal spot to store it. I hope I'm getting one of these unique and clever accessories for Christmas!

Yes, they will easily fit in the boot. The Eyeshades for a MINI are fairly small and fold up neatly for storage. You'll also get a nice storage bag to keep your Eyeshade clean when it's not in use.

Good news! They look great, can't wait for mine to arrive.

I hope that the Canadian ones are not sent UPS though - they'll soak us for a huge number of extra border brokerage charges. Recommend US Postal for Canada.

Here's a pic of Volly's Eyeshade folded up and stowed away in his boot:

Blur had me scared the other day that people wouldn't appreciate my Eyeshade. Glad I won't be the only DCMMer with one!

Pretty sure the Pepper White w/ blue eyes & eyelashes is the shade I ordered for "Fiona", my wife's MINI. Can't wait to see it in person!

One more pic from the group that shipped out this morning! Not all of the Eyeshades have been received from the printer yet since they each take some time to print, adhere, and trim. My printing company can only make them so fast. If you've received a shipping notification email, then yours is on its way! If not, yours is soon to follow!
