"Smart" windshield sun shade visor tint?

I've seen pictures of a window tint strip (about 4" wide) with the Smart logo that goes along the top of the windshield, anyone know where to get one?

I saw that this morning too - figured it was a tint strip on the inside of the window and Smart letting in vinyl on the outside.

Sorry to go tangential, but what a great picture!

I have no idea on the tint/visor/logo thingy.

I'm hoping someone will recognize it and tell us where to get the visor. Trailer is really cool, maybe when I retire!

...bump.

Wondering if anyone has ever come across a source for these? I know that Smart Madness (and perhaps others) sell a similar version, but with graphics of the car on either end. I much prefer the look of this one.

Thanks!

I have been looking for a while. I was lucky to have some spare Hankook Racing sun strips from my other involvement. The strip works very well.

The other option I contemplated is have a decal shop make one. It won't cost a lot. You can even go with just a simple black rectangular strip. Measure about 8" high and you will be fine.

The closest thing to it is what Smart Madness sells, but other than that, just go to a sign shop and they can custom make one.
