[[HIGHLIGHT]]Getting a safety check done every year can be a pain as my mechanic usually schedules it to be done at a certain time of day and you have to make a reservation on top of it. Over here its first come fist served. No reservation, no specific time of day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Any day and anytime they are open. Just pull up to where he tells you to go and it is simple, painless and you are on your way before you know it. Today's one costed $27. I guess everything is going up including safety checks. But if you have to get one, I suggest coming here. read more

(Living with Covid series) During May, when the first Covid shutdown started to get lifted, I needed to get my safety check done. It just so happened Yeep Julie C reviewed this neat little neighbor auto shop called Jimmy's Upholstery, so I made plans to check them out! Called them to find out if they took reservations, they said no- first come first served. Not a problem, they're less than a half mile away from me. Quickly stopped by, no line!. Less than 20 minutes later and for the price of the standard safety check, I rolled away all pau! Mahalo Julie C! As their name implies, Jimmy's also does auto upholstery. They do repairs too. Great little neighborhood auto shop, one I'll use again when I need to get my annual auto safety check completed! Definitely repeat and recommend! read more

Jimmy's Upholstery - Auto Upholstery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Needed safety check so I pulled up around 8:50 this morning. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The guy was working on a car but acknowledged & approached me while I parked.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Did the normal inspections, placed new sticker on the car, paid and I was out of there by 9:00. Drove by Jimmy's so many times and never gave them a chance. First time here for sure not the last. This is the kine solid local business that we need to support! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The headliner on our VW wagon came loose and was falling. I tried a few of the so called five star places first, but couldn't get an email or a call back[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I have driven past Jimmy's for years and finally realized that they do auto upholstery! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called and Jimmy answered on the second ring, I swung by the same day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He matched the color of the headliner and I made an appointment. Just picked up the car, good as new. It was just too easy and I really appreciate the quality of service and appreciation for my business. Mahalo to Jimmy's read more

It was the last day of the month my safety check was expiring. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I went to six other places well known for safety checks and all weren't available. Some weren't doing them at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A friend who used to work as a mechanic suggested Jimmy's Upholstery. I drove in, no appt. expecting long lines or another excuse but to my surprise as soon as I got there the safety check was done! Just remember to have all your paperwork and I paid in cash, $27 and that's it! Loved it. Will always go there and hopefully not wait till the last day . read more

Called this place ahead of time to see if they could upholster this small car seat for my partner's daughter. They said to come in so they could check it out. They ended up declining and told me to check out some other upholstery places nowhere in specific, but it would have helped if they had some places I could go. I don't get how small businesses like this don't have a network of friends, but whatever. I wish they could have just done it for me because I was lazy and willing to pay. All I wanted was them to literally drape the fabric over, but they said it would be too hard. I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY COULDN'T DO IT. Hence the 4 stars, but they guys were nice so whatever. Its in the backstreet behind of ross on King street. Small parking of 4 cars up front. They have a sign so its easier to find. I'm familiar with this area so I knew where it was. If you're not it can be harder to find. read more

This is my favorite place to go for a safety inspection. Shhhhh, it's a secret! Everything's been closed for the last few months due to the coronavirus outbreak. Happy to find out that Jimmy's opened up on Monday for safety inspections. Hallelujah! I love the prompt, no nonsense service. I was literally in and out in 10 minutes for my car safety inspection. I will be back again next year! read more

Want a safety check in 5-15 minutes? This place is friendly, fast & reliable. I very rudely showed up at 11:55 am which is 5 minutes before they close for lunch. They kindly did my safety check quickly and efficiently and I was out shortly after 12 pm. 10/10 - would recommend to anyone in the area. read more

This place is very near to me and I frequently pass by it so I yelped it and Mahalo to Julie C because i saw you can do safety inspection here and the place we get ours is always soo busy so thought we'd try this place as ours was coming up this month. They don't take appointments it's first come first served and I was out in about 15 min. When we came there was already a car there but the guy came and did everything check the car and was fast. Simple all done! No waiting. Will come here from now on but hope it stays a secret!!! Lol read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This father and son duo completely went out of their way to harass me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]First they said they couldn't read my insurance card on my phone. When I showed them the enlarged screen shot, that was not good enough[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All of a sudden the father started yelling at me and now I got this clown duo tag teaming me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]3 days later, I showed up with my insurance cards and the disrespectful son yells at me "what you need?" As if he didn't know who I was[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I been going there for 5 years.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I have talked to other people who stopped going there and it just seems like this father /son thing is just full of hate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked them why they were talking to me like that and they said they didn't have a problem but they didn't need my business.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I can only speculate on their reasons for being so hateful and rude but having talked to other people about why they stopped going to Jimmys upholstery it is clear that the concept of good customer service and solid ALOHA IS DEAD AT JIMMYS UPHOLSTERY![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Stay away from this outdated outfit! read more

1. Despite the sign out front, the company doing the motorcycle safety checks is Magic Trading Company (read whose name is on your receipt). Jimmy's Auto Upholstery is the sign for the upholstery shop in the rear of the building. 2. January 2023 I was told by the younger guy, who has done my safety check for years, that THEY NO LONGER DO MOTORCYCLE SAFETY CHECKS. He did not offer anyone else when I asked. Think I'll go to Montgomery Powersports on Nimitz. read more

The mechanic Frank and the owner are very honest and helpful when it comes to needing my vehicles serviced I can always just stop by if they're not busy and get work done on my car. I've been going here over 10 years I like the convenience of the shop's location as well. read more

Went there without calling or making an appointment to get my safety check done and it was so fast and easy I didn't have to wait! I will definitely be going back here again for my safety check next year. And I love the fact I can support a small local business highly recommend!!!! read more

Did my safety check on two of my cars on different days, about a month ago. No wait, as usual, fast and no hassles. Highly recommended, have been doing safety checks with them, for my cars & my toys (streetrods & motorcycles) for many years. read more

I always try to support local businesses; this one is a long time local business located in back of the old Long's location on King Street - it's on Young St. My friend who is an insurance adjuster told me that they do good work and he was right. I called them on a Thursday and had me come in the next day. I needed to get my car roof upholstery changed in my 2004 Honda Accord EX-L Coupe since the fabric was starting to sag. They had the right fabric and replaced the old with new fabric that was a perfect match! You would never know that I replaced it - took about 4 hours. Cost me 250 which was a great price. Very happy -check them out! read more

They do motorcycle safety inspections! Rolled in right when they opened and helped me right away. Was in and out in 15 minutes. They also take card transactions so that helps. They even peeled off the old safety sticker before putting on the new one. Great communication and very clean space. Will go again! read more

Fast, no-nonsense safety check. In and out in less than 15 minutes! They don't take reservations, so just show up.

Took a couple Windows on my Jeep soft top to him to have a broken zipper replaced. He did such a great job, you almost can't even tell the zippers had been replaced. And he charged me what I feel is a reasonable price for quality work. I'd highly recommend him to any of my friends. read more

Went to Jimmy's to fix my motorcycle seat that was coming apart at the seams. He took off my old seat cover and put on a new one. He did a great job, very happy with the results. Not sure if I got a good deal since it cost me $85 plus tax. read more

Terrible job. It was a simple straight stitch around the edge of some moderately heavy material. He sewed right over the rotting and unraveling previous thread. When I remarked about it he said it would take too much time to remove the old thread...( I lifted off 8" right in front of him at this point.) I asked him if he thought it looked good. I never acted upset or raised my voice but he just walked away. The price was ridiculously high, as well. If possible, I would give them a "no star" rating. read more
