Default Corvette Parts Worldwide Review??

I'm looking at getting new weatherstripping, a door panel, and possibly new seats in my car. very pricey. I want to be sure I get the best deal. I've become very familiar with ecklers, but how is corvette parts worldwide? are they a reputable company? they're definitely better in price. leave your experiences or what you've heard. thanks =)

Check out Willcox they are forum sponsor. They also have forum specials. I have ordered from them and they are great to deal with. Had some problems on sunvisors, but that problem was worked out also, and no fault on the part of Willcox on the visors.

They seem to be well meaning, but their customer service leaves much to be desired. I would prefer to pay a few dollars more and buy through the more well known channels. They seem to be a wholesale middle man between some of the well known suppliers. Nice folks but overwhelmed I think.

As a side note, this company is based out of Canada and some credit cards may charge a small premium for international transactions. You will not see these charges until you get your credit card statement.

I just bought a complete weatherstripping kit for my 94 from Wilcox. Received it 4 days after placing the order.

Bought my weather stripping from Wilcox, also. Had some issues with the passenger door A-pillar and they had their tech call me and help me work through the issues. Great customer service.
