Looks like they are going out of business...but at least now their prices are on par with everyone else!

If you were closer I'd probably had been at your place a lot more often

. I've been to autobacs a few times, there really wasnt anything I ever wanted or could use there for my yaris.

If anyone needs an SA2005 spec helmet, they've got them for $140.00 (Fulmer FA1). Great helmet for the price!

LtNoogie · 03-07-2009, 01:16 AM

Wow, where's Covina?

Nevermind. Too far. MicroImage is conveniently close by.

Kioshi · 03-07-2009, 03:15 AM

Sad news, but good for people on a budget wanting to buy things cheaper...

SilverBack · 03-09-2009, 06:41 AM

Sucks to hear that. Only been to the one in Stanton. Maybe I'll go check out Covina this weekend if there's time

KRAZGRL · 03-09-2009, 04:46 PM

Damn... that sucks. I remember when they opened their Stanton store.

MicroHB · 03-12-2009, 02:11 AM

oops.. Japanese PepBoys down lol
I guess all we have to do is

to MicroImage

superskunk'd · 03-12-2009, 08:19 PM

i stopped in there yesterday, and the store was almost empty.... all the good stuff is gone already...

Thirty-Nine · 03-12-2009, 09:08 PM

Wow. I went to one of these stores in 2006 (it was near Anaheim). Cool, but overpriced. Sad to see, though.

KRAZGRL · 07-12-2009, 11:11 PM

*bump* :D

Just thought I would update everyone (since I didn't see any other thread with this)...

I drove by the Super Autobacs location in Stanton today and it looks like it got bought out and just reopened.

They renamed it to Super Autotoys. lol Everything still looks the same inside and out.

Kioshi · 07-13-2009, 04:22 PM

Thanks for the update. I'll go check out the store since I'll be heading towards San Diego soon. Hope the prices are reasonable..

AdeJong 03 · 08-15-2009, 05:57 PM

i think they actually just got new ownership like chick's sporting goods turned into dicks.

the website now says super autotoyz? weird. i preferred autobacs but at least we can still have meets there
