Sun shade options?

While we thought it fit ok some have not been totally happy with the overall edge to edge fitment
We just created a new template for covercraft and shipped it out today so we should have a Emira specific made UVS shade coming soon. I will post pictures of the fitment from inside the car around the edges when it arrives.
 
I usually use twist and fold but I’m curious about the thicker style with lotus branding only because the cabin has plenty of room to store behind the seat. Always use a sunscreen folks. My interiors look mint after many years.

Y’all just keep thinking up ways to make me order more and more from your website!

We just got one of the your sun shades for Evora/ Emira for our Emira and I’m not too impressed with the fit, would like to send or back and exchange for one specifically for the emira

Send us an email and we will get you sorted out on Tuesday.
 
For those looking for a sun shade, I tried the GRP Evora one. Would agree that it's too short. However, I had a covercraft folding one lying around for a Ferrari 599 and it's almost a direct fit (about 1/2 too wide, but the height and windshield shape are spot on). I'll be using that from now on.
 
I found one that fits the Emira perfectly, it’s mylar on the front with a waffle pattern, has insulation and is light but a rigid folding style. It’s made by snap shades from Australia. It’s about $90 with shipping, pricey, but I couldn’t find any other exact fits.

I just received my Snap Shade from Australia. A very nice product and includes a bag with a draw string for storage. I highly recommend. It also made it to me in the US very quickly

I’ll add my vote for Snap Shades. Not cheap, but they’re Emira specific and they fit like they’re supposed to.
 
A Heatshield is the first item I purchase for any vehicle I own including the Emira. When ordered for the Emira, it arrived in three days.

Any good? Would love to see a pic.

Meh...

The first Heatshield I got was too small. There was a 2-3" gap at the top and on the sides. So, Heatshield graciously agreed to redo it, and we conversed several times with measurements, etc. The second Heatshield they sent is better in that it covers the entire windshield now, but (1) there's excess material at the sides, and (2) the top now covers the windshield, but it's not tall enough to 'catch' the sun visor.

I know, I'm being picky. It does the job, but I wouldn't say it's perfect.
