The latest word we have heard here at www.AccessorizeYourVehicle.com is that Lebra has a large commitment as the OEM supplier for numerous vehicle manufacturers.  Because of the demanding specifications of the auto makers, taking on these commitments is a sizeable task.

As a result, most prospective buyers of the Lebra and Downey Products lines have been scared away.  Fortunately, not all of the suitors out there have fallen away.  We are expecting to hear more details about the sale of Lebra very soon.

This just in:

June 24, 2009

 

Martin Lichtmann, President, Covercraft Industries, Inc.

Covercraft Industries, Inc. has entered into an agreement to purchase most of the assets of Global Accessories, Inc., which includes their Wolf Automotive, Powersports and Marine covers, LeBra front end covers, DashMat dashboard covers, Premier Floor Mats and Spidy Gear cargo web product lines.  Global's lines of Downey Products and LeBra tonneau covers were not included in the purchase. Well, well, well.  So much for letters of intent. No word on what happened to the supposed sale to Coverking that Global Accessories announced on June 2nd.  Maybe that was just a ploy to bring more players to the table.

The question still remains, what are all the owners of LeBra Tonneau covers going to do for parts?  Stay tuned.

AccessorizeYourVehicle.com is happy to announce the addition of the Superior Mats line of floor mat products.

Superior Mats is a third generation family owned and operated business in Arkansas. They have been manufacturing quality and timely floor mats for nearly 20 years. With over 35 years of combined experience they know how to make a quality product that will enhance the appearance of your vehicle.

Superior Mats manufactures their custom floor mats using 24 ounce cut nylon pile carpet. The custom floor mat products are backed using 80 ounce nibbed rubber backing.  This combination provides a plush new car look and feel to the Superior Mats custom floor mat products.  They also make universal and Class 8 truck mats using 18 ounce polypropylene carpet and 60 or 80 ounce nibbed rubber backing. 

AccessorizeYourVehicle.com is currently only showing the custom floor mats made from the 24 ounce nylon pile carpet. Superior Mats has provided images of each of their patterns they have available. We are working on getting this additional information on our web site in addition to the generic photos currently being shown.

The custom mats can be ordered as a complete set. You can also order just fronts, rears or runners and cargo mats depending on your vehicle's configuration.

Superior Mats floor mats are available in 14 colors. Custom embroidery is also available. Embroidery is done using 100% Rayon threads.  The threads are available in 18 colors and will not fade or stretch when exposed to sunlight. Although superior Mats is not licensed to embroider copyrighted automotive logos or emblems, they can produce custom logos for you when requested. Monograms and text embroidery is available in one of 5 fonts, Block, Block Slant, Script, Plain and their newest font, Fancy.

Superior Mats start as low as $46.20 for a set of rear mats or carpet runner. A complete set of mats are only $75.00.  All Superior Mat floor mat prices include Free Shipping.

This is the latest info from Carolina Consoles regarding the availability of Wolf Consoles.

Global Accessories has resumed shipping some products out of their Fremont Ohio warehouse.  Although their production facilities have not been placed back into service, they are able to ship from their current inventory.

AccessorizeYourVehicle.com is in the process of verifying which products are in stock.  Once this is done, those products will be reactivated on our web site.

Products shipped out of the Fremont warehouse include Wolf and Lebra front end covers, Wolf Power Sports items such as ATV Covers and accessories, Snowmobile Covers, Personal Watercraft Covers, GatorNets, Spare Tire Covers and Spidy Web products.

In addition to these products from Global Accessories, AccessorizeYourVehicle.com carries ATV Covers by Coverking, Covercraft and Coverite.  Snowmobile Covers by Coverite, Personal Watercraft Covers by Covercraft and Coverite. We also have ProNets and Spare Tire Covers from Covercraft.

Global Accessories sent us an email Tuesday morning with the following information.

Global Accessories has announced that Coverking has signed a letter of intent to purchase most of Global Accessories, Inc. Included in this purchase are all Product Lines, Brand Names, etc. except those related to Tonneaus. It is expected this sale will close in mid-June, 2009.

Global expects that under the Coverking's guidance, most likely before the sale closes, they will resume production of all our brands including DashMat, LeBra, Wolf, and Wolf Power Sports, etc.

What this means for the dozens of people who have contacted us over the last 6 weeks looking for parts to repair their broken tonneau covers is not clear.
