I have dealt with SMS fabrics...



In case anyone is curious, I have dealt with SMS fabrics. I got my headliner 
and three hides of black leather for my interior. The leather was a near 
perfect match to the original which had very little grain. It was twice as much 
as the next expensive place I researched, but ultimately worth it. It should be 
noted that my interior guy at Henkel's in Pasadena, CA, (great work) said the 
leather had a lot of imperfections in it, making his job a little harder. He 
had to find the cleanest parts to put in the most noticeable places. In the 
end, my seats look great! but I did pay a lot for it. 
As for the headliner, the material was a perfect match; the color, the hole 
pattern, they even stitched it correctly. All I had to do was pull down my old 
one and install the ribs in the new headliner and install; a lot harder that it 
sounds believe me. The only problem I had with them was that they sent me an 
extra piece of fabric for the rear window and two side pieces (where the 
reading lamps are) that was way too small. It was enough for the side pieces 
but not even close for the rear window. I explained to them my problem, and 
they said they'd be glad to send me another piece large enough. But I had to 
pay for it! What could I do? They had me by the jewels, I acquiesced. They sent 
me the piece, about two months later.
End of story: SMS has the right stuff, they are friendly, but they do take 
their time (a good thing, I guess). I just wish their customer service was of a 
slightly higher caliber. If I paid you for a complete headliner, I expect a 
complete headliner, should I have to pay for your miscalculations? Oh well, 
it's all history. My interior looks great and more importantly, feels luxuriuos.
