I've also been thinking about using car shades. Need a new one though, mine will just reflect yellow. Lol.

Great explanation. I use foamcore too, it works well and is cheap to buy. I also like the black foamcore for a gobo. Something else I use instead of buying namebrand pop-up reflectors is car window pop-up shades! Every auto store has them and for a very low cost.
