An automotive sunshade from Wal-mart (2 for $9), a cheap Sunpak Tripod from Woot.com ($7), a Gorillapod ($10) and a coupling nut (50 cents).

I had not been sure if the legs of the gorillapod would be enough to hold and adjust the reflector, but it works exactly as I'd hoped. I'll still be keeping an eye open for something more elegant.

I don't this this would stay put in the wind. It's fairly stable indoors, though.
