just noticed this morning, the sun was right in my face and i went to pull down a sun strip doh

is there any sort of sunstrip that isnt tacky that could be used to help here? i can see it being of aid on the sun is glaring.

i dont want some solid sticker of chavness, is there a more subtle gradient or something that doesnt look crap?

Why not get a window tint sunstrip on the inside. Sure you could get it done for less than £20.

What do you want to know? Go to a tint place and ask them to do you a sunstrip in whatever % you want, limo black to light smoke etc...
