Looks like there are more R60s coming aboard! For the record, here's what I would commit to order if you end up moving forward with us!

Model: '12 R60 Countryman
Color: Light white/black roof
Iris: ??? Not sure - whatever goes with my colors; also will have some chili red accents if that gives any ideas
Expression: double sided & I would be for sure be interested in angry and if you had "snooty/snobby" eyes with one eye using a monocle, I could use that whenever I intentionally parked in the middle of a group of high end luxury cars!!

That's VERY COOL! I was going to put "Cars" style eyes on the white backside of my HeatShield -- what's the ballpark price for yours?

Oh gosh that'd be hilarious! I sure hope you guys will be showing me pics of your MINI's once the sunshades are shipped out.

I'm still working on getting my companies in order that will be creating the shades. I won't have the final pricing until I hear back from them and see what the prototype looks like. I'll be letting you all know as soon as I can though!

How heavy and bulky would it be? I had the OEM sunshade and found it too big and clunky to and store under the seat

So far, I plan for my shades to be about the same size and thickness of the OEM shade. They are pretty durable although somewhat large. I just store mine folded in the backseat or in the boot when I'm not using it.
