I had a UVS100 for my 135i. I sold it and bought a new UVS100 for my M2. That said, they may be very close in size (I never tried it).
Hmm. You have the same part number for the one and two series.

I'm sending the second one back tomorrow and will see what the dealership says, but based on my last interaction, they seem as clueless as I am.
I was about to re-box the second sunshade for return but decided to try it one more time. It does actually fit. It takes a bit of fiddling to get the left and right sides to fit between the pillar and windshield. So much so that It seems like it's too wide.

To re-iterate: @GiacomoH and @DanG were right, part # 82-11-0-443-851 fits our cars, and can confirm it fits in my 2020 Comp.

Covercraft is the same one BAVAUTO used to sell. As I mentioned previously this is the fifth M car in a row i've used it in.

Right, for the BMW branded one. But on the Covercraft site for the UVS100 you get these part numbers:

UV11558SV - 2018 LCI or 2019 M2C
UV11066SV - 2013 135i

It's just curious that they have different part numbers if the sunshades are identical.

Too bad you didn’t try your one series shade on your M2 before you sold it. I bet it fit fine.

I too bought the Covercraft Blue one for my LBB LCI M2. I had an OEM Covercraft one for my previous car (Jaguar XF) which came with a bag and though I gave the new owners the sun shade, I kept the bag when I sold the car.

I've since also cut out the M logo with a Cricut and stuck it on one side of the shade:




I had to cut my shade to clear the Dashcam as well. I made the cut and sewed new felt over the edge and it's been fine for nearly 3 years now. I'm annoyed about the meth gauge in the lower corner but I'm not modifying the shade... I need to find a better location for the gauge!

I have Covercraft UV11349BL (BL for Blue) - the back tag says for:

2014-17 BMW 2 Series Coupe
2016-17 M2 Coupe

I think this one is an earlier version since there is about half an inch of the bottom sides leftover allowing a little bit of light to come in. This may be the reason as to why the I can put up without issues (no need to move the rear-view mirror) but does require the sun-visors to hold it in place. It does the job though even with a little light bleed (my front windshield has 3M crystalline tint so that also reduces IR heat entering the cabin)
