Never one to bash a vendor and like I said the product is awesome...but the time from order to delivery can be ridiculous at times....
Not anymore, pretty much all the major vendors have cut the line out. I agree, it was (or is) an awesome product and a big hit. Problems have been stacking up and I think we were one of the last ones to finally give up on the product line. I think MAD and Ecklers were some of the first because I got customers from them asking me for Kewl stuff saying that they had discontinued. The only thing I could say was "I think we are going to do the same." Its sad, they were a big seller and delivered when it came to looks. Maybe sometime in the future things will get better and Kewl will come back into mass production.

I got several rattle cans of Electron Blue from the dealer also. I painted my own surround.

That's surprising. I ordered my front license surround from them last year and it was shipped out within 24 hours.
