Since I placed an order last week and my card was charged imediately I was wondering if I should worry about delivery time. Anybody with experience with them? They were great on the phone answering questions! Tom

I got great customer service from them over the phone and my items were shipped quickly (they were in stock).

Bought their chrome intake manifold cover. Charged immediately for the purchase. Then I sat and waited. Over 2 months was ridiculous. When I decided I waited enough and wanted to cancel the order, the order miraculously shipped. When I got it, I sent it back...they had their chance. Will never by anything by Kewl no matter how cool it is. For painted parts, I recommend Vette Shop: www.vetteshop.cc. Ken is GREAT!!

In August I ordered a battery cover in torch red for my car. From time of order to receipt was about 10 days. I've always had good service by Kewl.

Friends of mine have placed orders for at least four full sets of the Kewl Smoothies - Greg is on a first name basis with them. He gives them great service and delivers on his promises.

I just ordered the full underhood set and was promised that I would have it all no later than Friday 10/27. I have no reason to expect anything else other than fulfillment.

I'll let you know!
