Default Anyone make a good custom window shade for a C6?

Hey guys,
My bro just picked up a nice black 2005. Problem is he lives out in LA and the car get's pretty hot when it's in the sun. He's not on the forum yet, so I figured I'd ask for him.

Anyone know of a good custom fit window shade? He want's to keep the sun off the dash. He was thinking of a dash mat, but I though that would look cheap in a C6.

Thanks in advance for the help!

The Jumbo sized mylar shade that you can get pretty much everywhere for not a lot of money fits fine top to bottom. It is a bit wide but if you fold in the side panels on each side its almost perfect.

Anybody know where to get the pop up style shades, not the foldaway kind?
