Don’t forget that custom car covers and seat covers are made to order for a specific vehicle and therefore take a little longer to ship than an in-stock item. Allow at least two weeks for delivery and order early if you’re planning to give a car cover or set of seat covers as a Christmas gift. Of course, if you order this week during the 15% off sale, you will receive the item in plenty of time for the holidays. See Monday’s newsletter posted below for details on the car cover & seat cover sale.

We are proud to reintroduce Four Star Ultimate Car Care Products. A change in Four Star’s distributing policies allows us to once again offer this premium line of car care products to our customers.

Max is launching a whole new program geared toward providing more quality car care choices to Autogeek customers. Collinite, Duragloss, and now Four Star are part of this effort to broaden our selection and bring together the best car care products in one place.

For a limited time, Four Star Ultimate products are on sale! This is a special
(re)introductory offer and it won’t last long.

SEMA is coming to an end. If you haven’t seen Max’s photo album that Meghan has assembled on the forum, follow these links to see what he’s been up to all week.

By the way, this picture is from the Rhino Strips display (you can see a larger version of it on SEMA Day 3). Rhino Strips are actually the rhinestone pinstripes running down the side of the car. Not surprisingly, no one noticed the rhinestones.

The Wrap-Up

Max is at SEMA but he didn’t leave without giving us all plenty of work to keep us busy. Thirteen new products have been added in the month of November and its only the 2nd! Many of these items are great stocking stuffers and unique gifts. Check Autogeek’s What’s New page to see the latest additions.


Just a reminder, Pinnaclewax.com and Wolfgangcarcare.com are both offering free shipping on orders over $75 that are shipped by ground service within the 48 continental United States. This is a limited time offer.

Autogeek’s Christmas countdown has officially begun. Christmas is 8 weeks from yesterday so we sent out a newsletter detailing Autogeek’s 8 Weeks of Christmas Savings. Every week a certain section of the Autogeek.net will be on sale or receive free shipping. A new section and a new sale will begin every Monday from now until Christmas Day. Save on gifts for friends and family or for yourself. Some of these items are rarely discounted so enjoy the savings while they last!

Specials will be announced in an email from Autogeek sent out every Monday to everyone signed up for the newsletter. Specials only apply to the section of the store announced in the email. The previous week’s special will end on the Sunday night before the new special begins. For more info, sign up to the Autogeek newsletter.

This week’s special is FREE SHIPPING on all the items in the Garage Accessories section of Autogeek.net.

Max is at the SEMA show in Las Vegas this week checking out what’s new in the automotive world. For those of you who may not be familiar with SEMA, here’s a brief overview of the event:

SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) is the biggest trade show held in the field of automotive specialty products. It’s where car care companies unveil new products and industry leaders gather to see what the hot new items will be in the coming year. Participants include Meguiars, Mothers, P21S, Covercraft, 303, Lexol, Altec, Kimberly Clark, Kleen Wheels, 3M, and many more. In addition to booths and displays by some of the biggest names in car care, there are seminars, product demonstrations, and special events for the attendees.

SEMA is held each fall at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show is divided into 11 sections, including Racing & Performance, Restoration Marketplace, Restyling & Accessories, and Hot Rod Alley. In other words, Max will be sending us some great pictures throughout the week. For photos from the first day of SEMA, visit Meghan’s SEMA thread on the forum. She’ll be posting Max’s pictures all this week.

We received the new Optimum Compound and new Hyper Compound, plus another highly anticipated new product from Optimum. Our lips are sealed until it hits the website, but look at this picture. A quick rain shower gave us a great photo op. This is a silver Mazda 6 belonging to one of us Autogeeks.
