Matching set.
Nikki B.

I needed to replace the upholstery on the driver's bucket seat of my 1966 Mustang. I requested a few quotes and Julio responded right away. I had already purchased the upholstery since it was custom (California Pony edition) and the hardware & padding. I brought everything to Julio along with the frame. I received a call the next day that my seat was ready. When I went to pick it up Julio also gave me back parts that he didn't use. I appreciate his honesty. The seat looks fantastic. I'm happy with it. I highly recommend Matus Auto Upholstery. Julio was professional and courteous. The price was very reasonable. The quality of the work was superb, and I appreciate that it was finished so quickly.

Clean headliner job

Good customer service and quick turnaround around. I wanted change the seats and steering wheel but I was out of budget. Headliner is so clean.

Response time was amazing, very friendly and quick turn around time. Price was right, work was outstanding. Will definitely be coming back for any future upholstery needs.

Custom bench seat

It was such a pleasure working with this Upholstery shop. The owner was very helpful and provided examples of multiple truck benches styles for me to choose from. The service was incredibly fast and the seat turned out incredible. Their workmanship can speak for itself and the price is very reasonable. I highly recommend this shop to anyone who is looking to replace the floor mats, upholster their seats or redo their car headliner.

Matus repaired the driver's bucket seat of my 1967 Mustang that was torn. Amazing job! Great quality and value. Would use them again for all of my classics needing upholstery work.

I got my leather seat fixed here for my 2012 Acura TSX. Driver's seat had a hole in it. They replaced the whole seat with leather, looks like new and blended it in beautifully. love the results! Julio the owner is really friendly and honest, gave me a good price and got it fixed in only three hours. Highly recommend this place, he even gave me a 90 day warranty.

I'm so glad I ventured over to Boyle Heights to meet Matus and see the fantastic work his shop does. I dropped off my van Saturday morning to have my headliner replaced and they had the work done within 4hours! The reviews on Yelp spoke for themselves and the price plus a 90 day warranty made it the perfect choice. My new headliner is beautiful! Thank you Matus and Co. It was great meeting you!

Matus Upholstery great job

Unfortunately, I have to write this negative review based on my experience, and there is really…read moreonly one reason for it. I wanted to swap out the foam in my Audi A4 seat because of back pain. I brought the original foam from the dealership. I had never done this before, and this was my first time having this type of work done. Before leaving my vehicle, I clearly asked the owner Kevin, whether there would be any issues with the heating elements in the seat. He told me that they had done this type of job before and that it should be fine. When I dropped off the car, I asked the supervisor on duty, Jose, the same question, and he also told me that they would go slowly and fix it properly. I never signed any document agreeing to this risk, before dropping my car off. Unfortunately, after the work was completed, the seat heater is no longer working. I tried to resolve the issue with the owner, but from his perspective, he could not offer any compensation, refund, or replacement. Instead, he shifted the risk back onto me and said that I already knew this could happen. I clearly explained that I did not know this could happen. Based on my conversations with both the owner and Jose before the work was done, I was told that it should be fine. Had I been told beforehand that there was a real possibility the heating element could be damaged, I would have made a different decision Or at-least be aware of the risk. Our deal included me getting my seat back as exactly as it was with the new foam - this did not happen. He also told me that I spilled something beforehand, I told him no the morning I checked everything was working fine.. as if he checked my seats before initiating repairs.... The replacement heating pad alone costs about $360. I already paid $200 for the installation to this shop + the foam itself was $260, and I don't want to have to pay another $360 for a new heating pad because the heating element stopped working after the repair. That would make this repair significantly more expensive than I originally expected. For me, the issue is ultimately about trust and integrity. I relied on what I was told by two people at the shop, and unfortunately, the outcome was different: my seat heater was broken. Being an upholstery business for many years, he probably knows that this is the risk, which we should tell the customer and not say that it will be OK. He probably well know this. I don't know why he told me otherwise. They behaved professionally so that's not an issue.. it's the outcome. This is my honest and truthful experience. My advice to anyone considering similar work is to make sure you clearly understand the risks beforehand and, if possible, get confirmation in writing regarding what will and will not be affected by the repair.
