Re: 1968 Golden Anniversary Seat Covers
A bit late, but since I just got an email from SMS, here's the sale ad...
I'll repost over in the PromoCodes thread too. As '68350' noted, it isn't often they run sales... https://photos.imageevent.com/hvclas...e/SMS_sale.JPG |
Re: 1968 Golden Anniversary Seat Covers
======================
UPDATE 5/12/20: Just to let everyone know. I received an email from SMS earlier today, they are offering to make a new set of covers. Needless to say I am very pleased :) "Kevin We will make the new set of covers for you correctly, if you send back the original set we made we will fix them for you. Thanks Kim" ====================== I'm posting this for those who may be ordering fabric seat covers from SMS. Pay attention to the direction the 'diamond' pattern runs in the upholstery you receive. I was wondering about the upholstery I had received (a while back) from SMS for my 50th, and can confirm (sadly) the fabric pattern is running 'up-down', when it should run 'side-to-side'. Noting here, I did (earlier today) reach out to SMS to bring this to their attention. Primarily since I just ordered the FAWN, but also regarding the 50th upholstery I already received. I even mentioned that I was aware others may be ordering their upholstery at this time to further raise the concern. Hopefully this will avoid the issue for others. Once I do hear back from SMS, I will edit this post with update...

The diamond pattern runs side-to-side, which is how the original seats were. |
Needless to say I am not at all pleased with SMS. I have emailed twice and called three times, left two messages bc no one ever picked up trying to buy a set of seat covers for my 68 Golden. Very frustrated.

Update. A month after ordering my 50th cover from SMS Fabrics I emailed them to follow up on the order. See if there was tracking available.
Quick response We are currently making a new roll of this cloth before we can make the covers. Will be a few months. Well I was planning to change the cover next winter. |

I just got shipping confirmation from SMS that a package is on it's way :) Not sure if this is the 50th or Fawn covers, but will post when I get them. Kevin |

Did you send your incorrect covers back to them??? |
Re: 1968 Golden Anniversary Seat Covers
On the first morning of the sale, I ordered a green cloth/vinyl ‘68 seat cover in the same pattern as the ones in these pics. I got an email saying that mine would ship out this week, but I haven’t gotten a tracking number yet.
Sounds like they did them all in one batch, so hopefully that makes it more likely they got the fabric direction right. |

With regard to the email I received for pending shipment, I suspect this is going to be the Fawn covers since I know others have ordered 50th stuff and haven't heard anyone else comment on shipping. ...just to be very specific, the email I received does have a tracking #, however just that a shipping label was created and a shipment is "pending" (not yet actually shipped). Either way, this is good news, I'll update as I hear more. |
Re: 1968 Golden Anniversary Seat Covers
Got my tracking number Monday, ETA is Friday.

Re: 1968 Golden Anniversary Seat Covers

Hey Gerhard, I’m risking rudely bursting your bubble, but am I seeing that the fabric pattern on your new cover is turned 90° from the original?
