A sunshade system (1) for use in a vehicle roof assembly, comprises a flexible sunscreen (2) having at least a main part (3) and two opposed, laterally placed, inwardly folded parts (4), a leading edge (5) and a trailing edge (6). The flexible sunscreen (2) further comprises an intermediate part (7) extending in between the main part (3) and the inwardly folded parts (4) and extending in longitudinal direction, whereby each inwardly folded part (4) is connected to the intermediate part (7) by means of a fold (8). Two opposed longitudinal guides (11, 11') are capable of retaining therein in a transverse direction and slidably guiding therein in a longitudinal direction, the adjacent inwardly folded part (4) and at least a part of the corresponding intermediate part (7) of the flexible sunscreen (2). The guides (11, 11') are provided with locking members (12) and with guide chambers (13) for engaging the inwardly folded part (4) of the flexible sunscreen (2) for preventing said inwardly folded parts (4) from moving out of the longitudinal guides (11, 11') when the flexible sunscreen (2) is at least partly unwound.Each intermediate part (7) includes a first compressed part (14) extending in longitudinal direction and comprising at least material of the main part (3). The first compressed part (14) is established under the influence of a compression treatment such that said material in the first compressed part (14) has a thickness smaller than the thickness of the same material in the main part (3).
