2002 (1967 - 1977) The first modern BMW debuted at the Frankfurt auto show in 1961, and has people talking to this day. The philosophy of a sports car that is also practical was born in the 2002, and has carried on to its successor, the 3 Series.

Clearing out carpet sets...

Hey Guys,

As most know already, we're closing the Seams Perfect doors for an indefinite period of time. One of the things we're doing in preparation is cleaning house. During cleanup and inventory, we're running into leftover stock, and leftover materials. Obviously we don't want to hang onto it, so everything must move.

I've come across enough black nylon loop carpet to do 6 sets, which I would like to offer here, before they go to Ebay. Regualr price on these sets is $229, plus shipping. I'll blow them out for $209USD, shipping included anywhere in the USA or Canada.

We may find more as we clean up, but I'm not sure. We have a room full of shelves, with shelves full of bagged upholstery and carpet. For now, it's just these 6 sets. They will all be shipped in time for Christmas. Please let me know here, or via email if you want a set. Black only, auto or 4 speed. PayPal preffered payment.

Thanks,

Al

The carpet itself is a Detroit loop nylon. Standard automotive loop carpet, with a latex backing. OEM in most American cars from the 50's-70's. Pics can be seen on my website at www.SeamsPerfect.ca

those that may not know canuck should be aware, al has a long reputation of collecting money and not providing the goods....visit FAQ and do a search..once paid, you'll have a hard time making contact with him again

also, his carpet doesn't include any padding and the shipping from canada can be excessive and slow

chris willet makes carpet sets, made exactly like larson's, from the same exact materials and sells for less than canuck's markdown price...and you'll get what you pay for quickly as well

Oh Esty, fuck off. For those who don't know, Esty has a long history of being a douchbag, and forgetting to take her meds. Not one single customer in 4 years in business has EVER not received their goods, and we have sold over 400 carpet sets. Slow? Yes, we can be. Expensive shipping from Canada? I'm including Canada Post Expedited shipping in the price, so eat shit Esty. We're shutting our doors, these are some of our last projects, and all will be shipped by middle of December. Now Esty, pick up your soother, and go the fuck home.

PayPal addy is Al@SeamsPerfect.ca.

Thanks, you won't be disappointed. Esty is simply a disgruntled non-customer. Never ordered from me, never spoken to me, just a shit disturbing old woman with nothing better to do.

As for Chris' carpet, I hesitate to say anything, but I will. BIG problem with his set is the binding. The pieces are fully bound, not selectively bound like BMW did it originally, and like we do it now. They will give lumps behind the overlapping pieces, and not really fit well. I have had several buyers complain about the "Ebay ones", and then buy from me. That's a fact. I have nothing against Chris, and never said anything about his sets before, but Esty forved that hand, sorry Chris.

And padding? Well, BMW didn't pad the back of the original carpet, and either do we. Our carpets are 100% authentic in construction to the originals.

BUYERS BEWARE

i have nothing to lose or gain by trying to prevent a new o2 owner from being duped....they'll make the final decision

chris's carpet set is an outstanding set, for less money and a lot less hassle....

additionally....AutoInterior sells the same quality carpet sets with backing included and you'll have it within a week from alabama for $189.00 in any color you want....COLORS

and larson...i am an old lady but you're a swindeling deadbeat that has caused a lot of angst for a lot of people you kept waiting, including o2 owners you conned into sending you parts that you haven't yet paid for...i'd say that makes you a deadbeat...i'll take old douchebag over deadbeat everyday...at least i'm trustworthy

people that don't know you, deserve to know about you

Esty, how many times are you going to say the same thing over and over again? You always "warn" people about me, and then offer NO PROOF of anything. It's getting old. You're a liar, and you wouldn't last 15 seconds in the real world.

As for parts I ordered? You're a crackhead, and know nothing, get over yourself.

Auto Interiors carpet has backing? Please tell me why that is a good thing? BMW never used sewn on backing, and either do we. That is a FEATURE, not a problem. Such a loser, you are.

proof...lol....all anyone has to do is do a search on FAQ...there are countless threads there where many people have voiced their bad experiences with you and expressed the difficulty reaching you, when not receiving what they paid for

want me to post links to all those threads...i have them, you know....my blogs down for updates but i can easily post all the negs you've garnered here

you don't think i deleted the blog...do you....lol

Of course you still have the blog, I expected nothing less form you.

Here's the thing, and before you reply, go and READ ALL THE THREADS WHERE PEOPLE HAVE PAGED ME. Please, actually read them. LOTS of them have NOTHING to do with carpet, or Seams Perfect. In fact, MOST of them don't, and many of them are older than my business is. Just to drive that home a little more, you actually had a "Paging Al Canuck" thread posted by Kirin!!!! He fucking works for me. There are a million reasons why people page me, besides work. Get it through your thick head.

Finally, ask all the people who were actually looking for me, if they received a reply, or their goods. Go for it, ask them. EVERY PERSON WHO EVER ORDERED FROM ME, RECEIVED THEIR GOODS. Those who have more recent orders, have been update by me, and know what is up.

Am I sometimes hard to reach? You bet I am. If I actually answered the phone every time it rang, or got into 15-20 email convos a day, no one would EVER GET THEIR STUFF. I need to actually work in the shop, you know. Otherwise, it's not much of a shop.

Now, fuck yourself in your own ass.

Al

Man- this soap opera plays here too!

In Al's defense, he DID DELIVER my carpet kit AS PROMISED IN TIME WITH GREAT QUALITY. I had a deadline to beat for a photoshoot(Performance BMW) and as mentioned, he met it.

And yet you sent me those pics of you in your underwear?!?!

And anyone who cares, Esty really did send me pics of herself in her underwear. Black ones, taken while straddling a chair from behind. At first I was just a bit grossed out, and then I noticed her "man package" hanging out. That's when I lost my lunch.

And yes, I'm so fat, please quit making fun of me

That's me, second from the right in the tan shorts, and plaid shirt.


There's my proof that I'm not fat, so where's yours, proving you're not a man?

Nope, no major weight loss. That pic above was taken without my knowledge, during a meal of pub food and beer. In all likleyhood, I was just letting out a teeny, tiny little post gulp burp. No excess fat there, sorry.

I may be in. I got a few questions though. I strip my car to make it a race car, the only thing I have in there right now is the headliner and door panels. I believe the carpet is the last thing I'll need. Right or no. Are ther miscellaneous trim pieces that i'll be missing, I recall the last carpet kit I bought came with the main piece and then a few others.
