1a auto

all I can say is if you are trying to save money and you think that 1a auto is a good idea it is not

I ordered a gas tank and it was junk
I ordered a set of door panels and had to work with them to get the 90-92 firebird panel and they sent it to the wrong address and then told me they were out of the upper door sweeps.

I will pay the extra money just to stay away from incompitence.

hahaha uh oh, i just ordered a front camaro light bar from them. Surprisingly, I found them online with a very cheap price, and they turned out to be located in my town. I'll let you know how my order turns out. So far, i've been nothing but pleased. My emails were returned within minutes, and the employees were very nice. It's been 4 days, and they said 5-7 business days to get my part. We'll see what happens.

I got my part about 5 days after they said it would be in, but they were apologetic. The part fit well. No complaints.

Off topic. I don't believe there was ever an IROC 27mm front sway.

I bought a carpet set, Headliner, Visors, and Sailpanels off them The carpet was trimmed way to short, the front pass alone was 6 in to SHORT! back around the rear seats was also trimmed to much, so now I need to look for a new carpet set.. The headliner was thrown together it looked like the tore the fabric during instalation and then just glued it back on, theres a tear mark in the fabric so I bought new material and have to recover the headliner, the sunvisors they sent me were for a hard top not a t top so when I called them up to tell tell them they made a mistake that told me that would exchange them but I would have to pay shipping there and back. I told them if they were gonna play that game I would call my credit card and tell them what happened and to cancle the transaction needless to say they shipped me out the right ones asap. Now even after I got them the fabric is comming unglued from the visor and I havent even installed them yet. lastly everyone knows how bad the sail panels are made. I would not recomend them and would never buy anything from them again
