I for the life of me can't understand why so many members buy a smoothie and wait so long for Kewl to paint it. When I picked up my '02 new from the dealer I had the stock $12 front surround that came in the trunk (looks identical to the smoothie, just satin finished black) I dropped it off at my local body shop, had them shoot it Pewter to match my body color. And It's all good. I would suggest members that live in states that have no front tag (or members that have no intention of using it) to offer it in the sale section at a reasonable price or even a pay it forward so that members won't have anxiety attacks waiting for mail order houses to come across with product.

If you have to run a front plate, that's the way to do it .

I have numerous Kewl parts under my hood. The work is top notch. They just need to get their act together in getting the product back to you along with charging your account when they ship the product not as they state when they get your order.
