Wolfsburg West Quality!

Picked up a new car cover, today, at Wolfsburg West. Never again, will I ever buy anything with those stupid letters; EMPI (read: FAIL). Utter and complete crap. For the same price, I got a WAY better built car cover... it actually FITS a Bug body... they include a heavy duty drawstring bag for car cover storage... includes extra white nylon grommet reinforcements... and the lower strap (to secure the cover underneath the car).
Very stoked on their customer service and the fact that they're offering a far superior product for the same price as that above mentioned fecal matter. My last two car covers have been by them, but those will be the last items where they got my business. Thank you, Wolfsburg West, for the cordial business transaction, nice catalog, and kickass product! I'll be, for sure, back for future investments.

I think my lone purchase through WW has been floorpan halves for my '70 thus far... very impressed with the quality. This was back in 2003 or 2004, before the extra thick versions became available.

Agreed. Their quality is great! Two or three years back, I purchased a pan half from them. Was beyond impressed how thick the metal was and the construction was way nicer than I expected.

I would say for all vendors of reproduction parts, Wolfsburg West is the best. I did find things that aren't up to the standards of German products however, they're still the best!

Ditto. Just got some Boge shocks for all 4 corners, front sway install kit, and antenna from them in the mail today. I get most of my stock parts from them.

Likewise I got all my interior products headlining, square weave carpets and seat covers from them and a number of other items. All the parts being imported to the uk, cant say enough good things about their products or service.

Good quality is always appreciated....even with something as simple as a car cover. Good to hear that WW has a good one.
I've been wanting to get a Nose Bra for my Ghia for freeway driving. Colgan Custom was the original manufacture of Ghia Bras and I always felt theirs were the best fit by far, however production stopped on the KG Bras many years ago. Fortunately their designer is a long time friend of mine. She was able to dig up the original pattern and make one up for me. Here's a picture as we were doing the initial fit up. She made a few final adjustments to it after this photo. The fit is excellent plus its nice having something that no longer available.

Jim, I tried using their site... but it won't let me get past the Select Year part. Had I known about them before today, I may have gotten one there. But I happened to be working near W.W. today so it worked out great.
Ed, Colgon used to make some great car bras... used to sell 'em when I managed Auto Haus. Stoked that you got that new one made.
Phil, you're right... that place is all about being a class act.

Dude you were about 5 miles from my pad today. WW is second to none. Best thing with those folks is they CARE.

When did you move, Jason? You used to live near me. True about them caring... was very pleased with how friendly/helpful the staff is.
