ECKLER'S FRONT BLACKOUT KIT "JUNK"
Just wanted to let everyone know not to buy a front blackout kit from Eckler's the set I recieved yesterday is rediculous. The set had scratches all over them and the over quality was very poor, I am sending them back today. They were produced by a a Company called GT Styling Products. Can anyone recommend a different vender that may have these? I was thinking about trying Corvette Central or Mid America. Hank

funny they either get from each other or from the same distributor... so you may end up getting the same thing...

They're all pretty much overpriced junk- but they look good from a distance. :D And don't even think about taking them off in cold weather, they snap like peanut brittle.

I wouldn't blame Ecklers for that. GT Styling is the leading maker of blackout kits that all of the catalogs sell. You could have contacted GT Styling about the problem as well. I have dealt with them on both sides (sales and consumer). They are a great company. They offer a lifetime warranty on their covers. I had one on my Mustang come off while I was driving. I took a stab in the dark and called them about it. They told me if I sent the one I had back to them, they would send a new set out. Cost me about $10 for shipping and I had a new set delivered to me in days. On the sales side, I have also had great experience with this company.

I've got a new, unused set for a '95 that I'll sell cheap. Have no idea who they were made by. Don't think they are scratched. Send me a note at lspalding@ameritech.net if you're interested and I'll dig them out and send some pics.
