OEM replacement parts supplier(s)

Hi all, I am new to TGO and new to the family of Third Gen owners. I have read many or the rules regarding posts/threads so if I have erred in some way please let me know. I am the proud second owner of a highly optioned Z49 92 Z28 and it needs new leather and foams for the front seats and a new dash pad for starters. I dont know what suppliers are good to deal with and/or who will ship to Canada. I would rather spend a few dollars more to have quality OEM that try to save a buck and ruin the car, i think many of you know what I mean! Any information would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Welcome, classic industries is one the larger suppliers for 3rd gens.There are others as well I'm sure, but I have little to no experience with them.Im guessing shipping to Canada is going to be costly, regardless.

Classic Industries is another excellent source, they seem to have everything I will be needing! Shipping will hurt... Thank you!

Camaro depot is in Ontario, so no cross border issues. Used them for some smaller stuff like emblems and all has been good.

They have quite the reputation for taking peoples money and not delivering the goods. A simple search on here or Google should show how they have handled their business.

Ah, okay thanks for the inf., I see a lot of ads for them because they are somewhat local to me. Only dealings I have ever had was asking them a question via PM on facebook in which they were actually pretty helpful and timely in their response. Sucks their business ethics don't seem to mirror that experience.

He is located in Crete, IL. to be exact, which is just south of Chicago on the Indiana border. His service has gone down hill dramatically in the last few years though. I have dealt with him on a few occasions with good results, but given the numerous problems other members have had i will no longer do business with his company via online sales.

Nice! Crossborder shopping can lead to surprise charges....
