Ordered some LED headlights from them for my '53 Ford. Had a problem with the headlights and the company went overboard to fix it. Great company to do business with.

Glad to here that there are some companies that actually offer service after the sale.

And I had quite the opposite experience. I'd purchased a so called "custom fit" cover for one of my modern sports cars. About $300 which was okay IF it actually fit.
Well, it didn't fit. Not even close.
Called them and was told that's what they sell for my car. Told them that prior to ordering I'd spoken with Jeff and he'd assured me it was custom fit for my model, my year.

Bottom line? Too bad, so sad for me.
I did use the cover inside (winter storage) for two seasons until the seams actually began to split.
Total garbage, total waste of money.
Such a bad experience with them, I'd suggest everyone stay away.

Like Kube said................

I bought one for a car in 1990 and it fit nicely and was a good quality.

Fast forward to 2015 same company and sure not the same quality that cover was total garbage.........

Probably another company that got to big for their britches. They had a quality product in the covers (I have one that is over 20 yrs old and still n good condition) but then they started to sell all sorts of other products and it looks like the covers quality went south.

Oh-Oh. Did Eckler's buy California Car Cover, too?

I was going to disagree with the OP, but I see Iwas not their only dissatisfied customer.
I bought a custom fit cover and the darn thing started disintegrating within 6 months...contacted CC and got crickets as a response...haven't bought from them again...and never will.
