    While I don't have that particular cover, I would most definitely send it back. Crooked embroidery can't look good.

    I'm not real impressed with the quality of any of their parts. I got one of their cheap covers and while it's the right shape it's nearly as tight as piano wire. I put it on hoping it would stretch but after 4 months it's still real tight. They are good friendly people but the parts just seem to be a lower quality than most others.

    I just placed an order with them yesterday. I ordered the Noah Car Cover for $149 in addition to a couple other items. Is that what you ordered? In any case, I can let you know in about a week when I receive it if mine is crooked or not.

    This is the one that has the emblems embroidered on it front and rear. The rear embroidered emblem is what is crooked.

    Call Mid-America and tell them about it...also tell them you want a pre-paid mailing label to return it so you don't have to incur the postage expense!!

    They will do this ?
    I might be returning some stuff and this sure would help.

    I just bought and am trying to install their outer door window seals.
    Not happy at all
    The clips on them are a VERY soft metal that bends in every time I try to pop them into the holes on the door.
    I have to bend them back out.
    One just snapped, now I'm ready to snap.

    Also got their front end mini bra.
    Not sure on this one yet?
    Looks like it is well made but in order to use it I have to remove 8 bolts from the car each time ! Not too convienent to just pop on and off.

    So my experience with their inhouse brands are ???

    But in your case with the logo croocked

    Wow! My order came in just 2 days! I am very happy with the quality of the Noah Car Cover (although had I known about the other $149 cover with the corvette emblems on it I probably would have been tempted to go with it). I would recommend it to anyone out there looking for a cover.

    I have the same cover and mine was perfect. It fit very well. Mid America's customer service is pretty good about their product quality. I'm sure they will send you another one with no hassle. Just give 'em a call.

    OK Roger I think you have made your point... going back through files to find one from July 10, 2003 so you continue your rant against Mid America Motorworks has all the ear marks of attacking.

    If you have an issue with a Vendor and want to advise members about YOUR issue's then do it in a constructive manner. Under handed vindictive negative comments or debasing a company, individual or other member is NOT permitted on the Corvette Action Center Community. It is esp. WRONG if the reason for joining our Community to fire salvo after salvo toward a aftermarket vendor/GM/Member, or as outlined in our Terms of Service and our Acceptable Use Policy

    I agree with Yoda on the rants against any vendor without due reason. I have ordered a ton of stuff from MAMW and if there is a problem, they will work with you every time; I have returned items that were not as represented or of poor quality, and they e-mailed me a Fed Ex label at their cost to return the items. MAMW is a good company and I am proud that they are a sponsor of CAC.

    You have been slinging the same BS over at the CorvetteForum site....and I find the responses by the "evavra" username there to be rather ironic.

    You then come here and start digging up threads from 2003 just so you can slander a Vendor here as well? I think not.

    You're out of here and this thread is closed.
