Made to order — cut and fitted for your car, ready to ship in 1–3 weeks.
This set includes front-door panels — parked use only. Australian road rules don't allow shades on the front driver or passenger windows while you're driving. Fit them when the car is parked, and take them off before you drive. Rear-door and third-row panels are fine to leave on.

About these BMW X3 2018-2024 sun shades
BMW X3 sun shades (2018–2024) — custom-fit magnetic window shades made for the X3. UV protection, a cooler cabin and gap-free rear-window coverage that universal shades can't match.
☑ Custom-measured on your exact car — Every shade is measured directly on each individual vehicle, then produced at the workshop, fitted to the car, and fine-tuned until it meets standard. Only the finished, fitted car is photographed before the product goes to market — so every product is precise, thanks to a closed-loop, specialised process.
☑ A genuine, gap-free fit — Exact dimensions mean the shades sit flush: clean-looking, with no gaps or warping and no damage to the door seals. Rear-door shades cover the whole door, while front-door shades are cut to leave just enough room to see your mirror, watch the road, and reach toll and parking cards.
☑ 100% black polyester mesh — The mesh blocks UV rays and cuts glare and cabin heat. Already have window film? Add these shades and you're set. No film yet? The shades alone are highly effective — there's no need to film your side windows (film the windscreen if you'd like).
☑ Fast on, fast off — Fitting and removing the shades is quick and simple. Even with the window down, the shade still blocks sun, dust, and insects. Best of all, from inside you can see out clearly, while from outside it is harder to see in.
Shades hold securely in normal driving — we recommend removing them at highway speeds.
BMW X3 sun shades — FAQ
Are these good for a baby or child seat in the X3? Yes — the rear-door shades fully cover the back windows to keep UV and heat off a child seat, while the see-through mesh lets you keep watch. See the best car sun shades for babies in Australia.
Do magnetic shades mark the X3's door trim? No — they grip the steel frame magnetically with no clips or adhesive, so there's no damage to paint or trim. Read our magnetic shades review.

Build quality
Round 304 stainless, not flat steel
Most shades are framed with flat steel wire. It corrodes, and its edge works through the mesh at the fold. Ours is round-profile 304 stainless — it doesn't rust, and it doesn't cut the fabric it sits in.
Visibility
See out, without being seen
The mesh is open enough to see through from inside and dense enough to keep the cabin private from outside. Windows still wind down, and air still moves through.

What customers say
Good shades, do the job well. Came in damaged packaging, looked like it got crushed in transit somewhere, but the shades inside were fine so not a big deal. Fit is spot on and they stay where you put them.
Had em a few weeks now. Slap em on in the morning and forget about them. Car's definitely cooler when I get back to it in the carpark at lunch. Can't ask for much more at this price.
Solid product. Does what it says. Keeps the car cooler and the sun off the little ones.
Pretty rapt with these tbh. Wasn't sure if universal fit would work but they sit flush against the window frame no gaps. Keeps the afternoon sun off the kids in the back. Would order again.
The shades are great quality, can't fault them. Fits perfectly and does a good job blocking the sun. Three stars purely for the delivery experience, waited over two weeks and the tracking was useless. If they sorted out their shipping I'd give these five stars easy.
