Hello,
Any one have experience with the Auto Atl seat bolster kits? My car is Signal Orange and the seats are brown per the COA. How close are the kits to original color, texture and fi. Thanks for your help. Thanks, Jack |

I am not a George basher.
I have visited AA twice while on business in Atlanta. The first time, he treated me like I was a door-to-door vacuum salesman and summarily dismissed me as if I were a pan-handler. Not sure why I went a second time, but I did, and he was as gracious as can be. He called one of the warehouse guys and had him give me a guided tour of the premises, including his upstairs stash of un-obtanium stuff. I probably could have got in to see the cars as well, but I had a flight to catch, and it just didn't happen. If I recall correctly, it is a little cumbersome getting down into his "display area". Bottom line, I buy from AA on occasion because there are some parts that are not carried elsewhere. However, I have found the prices and customer service to be far superior from the likes of 914rubber.com, GPR, pelican, tangerine, etc. If you go to the member-vendor section here, you will find a lot of great people to deal with who share your same passion. Give Mark (mikey914 / 914rubber.com) a little time, and I am certain that he will come through for you on brown bolsters. |

I'm a newbie so when I got my car two months ago I did some research and started buying parts. I had no knowledge of AAs reputation. I placed orders from PP, AA and Mark. When Mark received my first order he called, asked about my project, welcomed me into the community and gave me his cell number. Impressed? What do you think? I posted a thread about black rivets and Mark was selling them on his site in 2 hours. I posted this current thread about brown bolster kits. He's already working on it. PP. great customer support and very helpful website. It's my choice for parts I can't get from Mark. AA. They have lots of parts... |
