I cannot say enough wonderful things about American Upholstery, especially Manny! I came in after a pretty upsetting spill in my car, worried that the liquid had seeped underneath the seat cushion. Manny was incredibly kind and welcoming from the moment I spoke with him. What initially appeared to be a simple surface cleaning turned out to be a much bigger mess. Manny actually removed the seat cushion and discovered that the spill had soaked through underneath, along with quite a few other surprises hiding down there! Rather than rushing through the job, he took the time to address the problem properly and made sure everything was thoroughly cleaned. What impressed me most wasn't just the quality of his work, but his genuine kindness, honesty, and willingness to help. It's rare these days to come across someone who treats people with that level of care. Manny truly went above and beyond, and I left feeling incredibly grateful. I would absolutely recommend American Upholstery to anyone looking for quality work and exceptional customer service. Thank you again, Manny! You turned a really stressful situation into such a positive experience! read more

It's been a few years but I went back to AA for a major job--re-upholstering four seats in my 10-year old Tesla. It's the one car in our family so Manny worked out an efficient process of taking individual seats out so we could use the car. At a couple of points they did have to keep the car so I Ubered. Wow, the seats perfectly match the interior--and they're beautiful. The car looks almost brand new! Such great workmanship. He also arranged to have the curb rash on the wheels repaired while he had the car. So nice. read more

I had an amazing experience with this auto body shop, they replaced both my windshields on my 2020 Toyota Corolla the same day and made the whole process completely stress-free. From the start, they were incredibly accommodating with my schedule and kept me updated regularly so I always knew what was going on. Not only did they give me a great deal, but when I picked up my car, it honestly looked brand new. The quality of their work and attention to detail really stood out for me and I will be recommending this place to everyone I know. They are fast, professional, affordable, and had excellent communication I really couldn't ask for more. I highly recommend this shop to anyone needing auto body work or windshield repair! read more

I brought my 2015 VW Beetle R-Line for a repair to the drivers seat. A tear in the seam and leather was causing the seat to unravel and it looked really bad. This shop is amazing. They fit me in quickly for the repair. It was easy to find, excellent work, reasonably priced, and they detailed my car-inside and outside!! Epic!!! I highly recommend this shop and I will bring my beetle and other cars here for future detail and repairs. read more

The seat bolstering on my driver's seat (Toyota RAV4) was too firm. It left me feeling sandwiched into my seat with pressure on my upper legs and butt. It made driving uncomfortable after 15 minutes or so. So I went to Manny to see if American Upholstery could level out the padding in the driver's seat. Manny assured me they could - he has some of the best people working for him and dealerships who bring him work - so I felt like I was in the right hands. Manny was friendly and responsive, sending me updates on the work along the way (with photos). I am very happy with the results (looks like it came out of the factory!) and would highly recommend this business to anyone! read more

I am so happy I found this place. I have a MK6 GTI that ended up with a drooping headliner. I purchased the OEM replacement fabric online intending to replace it myself, but I had second thoughts after seeing the effort involved. I found American upholstery after researching some places in the area, and Manny immediately provided me with a quote over the phone. I dropped my car off in the morning and had it back by the afternoon the next day. When I dropped my car off, they also informed me of a special they had going on for a detailed interior and exterior cleaning. My car desperately needed it, so I had them perform that as well. They did a great job installing the headliner; It looks brand new. The detail cleaning was also EXCEPTIONALLY done. They did everything...vacuuming all the carpets, to wiping every single surface down, engine bay steam cleaning, polishing the calipers and rims, wax....my car has not looked this good in YEARS. There was great communication throughout the experience, everybody was very nice, and they absolutely delivered on all of the work that I needed done. To top it off, I think I paid a very fair price, especially in researching the cost of this job from the dealer and some other shops. I can't recommend this place enough, and I'll definitely be back. read more

After 10 years of service (and, hopefully, many more to come), my car's driver's seat needed to be re-upholstered. I was quoted a fair price to do the job, and when I returned to pick up the car, they had not only repaired the seat but had also detailed the car inside and out and had polished the headlights. Highly recommend! read more

I just had a new top installed, and a new interior on my 1950 Willys Jeepster. I can't say enough about how pleased I am with the outcome. Manny and his crew thoroughly went the extra mile to make everything perfect. The top and the interior are definitely museum quality. Manny would send me update photos every day and keep me in the loop of everything that they were doing. They definitely went beyond in everything they did. I highly recommend them for any of your upholstery needs. read more

Manny and his team were AMAZING in quickly fixing a small puncture in the passenger seat of my MB GLC 300. After calling South Bay Mercedes and Caliber Collision, turns out American Upholstery is where they outsource any auto upholstery issues for their customers. Manny was able to fit me in the schedule and frankly I could have picked it up later that day if my work schedule permitted. His team was able to replace the piece of leather in the seat and pieced it back up like new. (See before & after pics). Manny was friendly, efficient and very customer service-oriented. I will not hesitate recommending American Upholstery for any auto upholstery needs. read more

Normally I don't give 5-stars... There's always room for improvement. But Manny at American Upholstery deserves it. I had previously taken two cars to them to have old/cracking driver armrest leather replaced. In the case of one of the vehicles, it was installing leather for the first time. I've been very pleased with that work and how it's persisted since the installation. Today, I dropped by because I had some paint from a house project that had been in the passenger seat. Took it by and Manny pulled his magic spray and removed free of charge. That's service! Will go back with all my auto upholstery needs. read more

Manny and his guys did an awesome job on my 21 year old truck. My old seat covers and under foams were beat to sh*t!! I brought in the new covers and foams and they had it ready in a day. They even filled in the foams with extra padding. Feels even better than when the truck was new. Highly recommend these guys for any upholstery work you need. Very professional and flawless work. read more

Nothing they can't do! AU restored my 22-year-old forerunner's old gray, cloth interior to better than new, with black leather seats and black carpet. Not only did they do the interior, they also installed new door speakers, a subwoofer, an amp, and​ reverse camera! Even got it back detailed too. I didnt have to do anything other than say yes or no. They know exactly what they're doing and know the best of best equipment to use and install. Highly recommend, will be coming back for a paint job and window tinting.​ read more

I came by this place from a friend's referral, I pulled into the drive and was greeted there by Manny, he was patient as I quickly gave him the overview of items I looked to get fixed and he assured me that they could easily take care of them. I love my Big Red Truck and American Upholstery delivered on all items! I needed my driver's side seat repaired, a new headliner, a door lock linkage repaired/replaced, find a 22 year old hub cap, and do some custom trim fitting around sub speakers I installed, plus a detail. I've uploaded pics of the before and after work for comparisons...

I had an urgent job that needed to be done. The front passenger seat needed a deep cleaning. I went in and let Manny see the situation. He instantly had a gameplan to take care of my vehicle. He gave me a great price for the work and took care of it promptly. All the while educating me on the work and steps involved. He updated me on everything so I understood exactly the type of pride they take in what they do. The finished product was amazing. I will return for anything else I need. read more

I had my Jeep seats done! I went from cloth to Leather and from the second I walked into his business the Owner Manny took great care of me. The leather seats make my Jeep look Brand new. He text me all day explaining and asking me what I wanted done. He also Detailed my Jeep very cheap and for the job that was done I would of paid a couple hundred dollars more just for the Detail. I had dog stuck in my carpet in the back for over a year. Remember you get what you pay for. I couldn't of dreamed a nicer job with my whole car. They even steam cleaned the engine. A+++ I highly recommend any custom ideas you have check with Manny he's done so many I bet you like his vision more than yours. Thanks Manny, you and your team Rock!! read more

Manny and his team did a great job on the interior for my Bronco. Getting an upholstery shop to give me a quote for my project was tough because I am restoring my own car, I am only giving the shop seat frames, door panels and quarter panels and a dash that was already removed. I needed a shop that could do all this work and then hand me back my interior. As such, there was no vehicle to drive over and have them look at and give a quote. Just interior pieces already pulled out torn down. Most shops wanted me to jump through a ton of hoops to just get a quote, or when I called gave me stock responses and offered me their less than genuine "I know what you want for your interior" and would cut me off when I tried to share what I was looking for. Manny spent a ton of time with me on the phone, sent me a ton of texts with sample images and then sent me physical samples to my house. Then when he ultimately got all of my interior pieces he would mock up sections and send pictures for approval. He used top notch materials and did an amazing job on every piece he did. He followed the overall aesthetic I was looking for and where appropriate added in touches he felt would help keep that look consistent throughout the vehicle. While he did the project he would text me update pictures to share the progress and ask for feedback for the next steps. He was always checking in to see if I liked how it looked. I love his ideas, quality of work and how attentive he is to his customers. read more

The reviews are all true! I Love what they did for my car! The drivers seat of my Volvo seams started to separate. I really appreciate the knowledge Manny and his brother have for upholstery. Manny suggested that he might be able to pull the leather a little tighter to fix some of the scratches that where there. I have included before and after shots. Completely satisfied with the final product. Just be aware, this place is very busy, because they are GOOD! When you make an appointment, call the day before to be sure they can still fit you in. read more

I needed the water damaged headliner replaced in my 2004 Chevy Tahoe, so I contacted Manny to make an appointment. I was told the job should be done in 1 day, but it actually ended up taking longer than expected and my vehicle was kept overnight. This was not an issue because I knew it was a big job, but no one notified me that I would not get it back until the next day. I only found out by driving by the business only to discover they were already closed for the day. When I picked up my vehicle the headliner looked amazing and I was very satisfied. Manny's crew was even able to repair my sun visors. I had some clean-up to do from some of the debris that was left behind, but all in all I would recommend this business for your vehicle interior needs. read more

I'd give them six stars if I could. Manny and his team went above and beyond to take our car from relatively destroyed to like new.

This was my first experience with auto upholstery. I live in El Segundo and I found this shop on Yelp. Decided to give it try based on all of the positive reviews. Manny and his team were awesome. Replaced my driver's side seat leather the same day I brought my car in. Can't even tell that there was work done. Pricing was about what I guessed it would be.
