Re: buyer beware

I ordered and got enough to do almost three complete 66 Custom Cab seats of the cloth insert material about April this year. I got the cloth insert and the fawn vinyl in about 5 or 6 weeks. The two white embossings took about 3 months. Materials all looked great but the embossing were a little saggy almost as bad as the 46 year old. The embossing order is what ticked me off as they charged $40 shipping on just the pair of embossings when I ordered since they told me it had to be shipped flat to avoid stress and wrinkling of the fresh heat seams. OK makes sense I said but then they were both shipped rolled up together in a tight little tube when they were shipped 3 months later! I still am very happy with what I got compared to my original and my 68 year old upholstery guy isn't any faster then SMS but can make it look better than new factory original. May take till spring but they should look factory original.
