Hello All.  Wanted to put this out there.
Last year I purchased a Wheelskins cover for my 91.  Got the EuroPerf style
in Black and Gray. Well, I noticed that the gray was wearing quite a bit,
especially where it joined the black. When I contacted them, they were very
nice and tried to offer me something.  I told them I wasn't looking for
anything free, just commenting on the wear of the gray material. Rep stated
that gray doesn't hold up well.  I do not drive my van as much as most do.
I was thanked for my honesty and that was that.
About 3 months later(last weekend) I noticed that the cover split where the
black and gray meet.  This time, I wanted to inquire about their warranty as
I felt that t should have lasted longer.  Here is their response....

Sorry to hear about your problem with the Wheelskin.  Even though your cover
is off warranty, it should not have ripped.

Please let me know where and how it ripped, then

Tell me what the color or colors are, what vehicle it is for, and your
address, and I will send a replacement at no charge.

Kudos to them.  These covers are about $60US.  Nice to know they back their
product.  Got all Black this time.
