i put in my order for gauge and shifter overlays on april 13th, i got a delivery email about how they were shipping (usps was electronically notified) april 21st w/ usps priority mail (2-3day shipping), april 26th, and i still haven't got them (even after today's mail). 
i'm starting to get a little worried, especially since i already have the dash apart ready for install. but i'm still holding out hope, i really need these to complete my interior look, but still:

the usps tracking number doesn't tell you much. all it says is that usps was electronically notified to expect the package (stuck on that since last monday). supposedly it doesn't change until it's delivered, then it will just change to: package received. i even called usps, and they couldn't tell me if they actually had the package or not. it's ok, think happy thoughts and hopefully they'll get here. i was so happy when i got the delivery email, but maybe that was premature. i had a feeling this transaction wouldn't go super smooth, but man i want those overlays, so i can wait a bit more. is there any other overlay option that don't require the removal of the needles?

I got mine about 1 month ago without emailing or calling. I payed extra to have them 2nd day delivery, and they came exactly in 2 days. I had done a search and alot of people seemed to wonder why he does'nt answer emails, and why it took so long. Nobody said they tried 2nd or next day. It worked for me.

well, i ended up getting great customer service after all. after macewen figured out his mistake, he overnighted my package and i got them today. he even called me personally to tell me. i've never had anyone call me up to apologize for something going wrong, so i got to hand it to him and thank him for the customer service. he was away for a bit for personal reasons, but he's back now. so i guess for all those people on the fence, he seems to be shipping stuff out normally now. here's my stuff:

^^dont be too disapointed with the shifter overlay because its hard to see where the little red gear indicator is during the day....so hopefully you are very used to shifting your car

I finally received my silver overlays after three weeks. I never got any responses from any of my emails concerning my order or any calls apologizing. I am happy with the overlays, but not at all with the service. Here are mine with the bird decal:

i hate so much that i'm bringing this thread back from its recent death, but this guy just does not deliver on what he states on his website. i ordered some 97-02 camaro hvac/headlight overlays (thinking it wouldn't take as long as my first order for gauge and shifter overlays, silly me), almost two weeks ago and he hasn't even processed my order yet. hasn't replied to my monday email either. has anybody made any contact with macewen or had anything shipped to them within the past 3 weeks? i'm curious. also if anybody has any silver macewen camaro hvac/headlight overlays they want to get rid of, i will buy them and pay you the "new" price if they are in that good of condition....
Their stuff is just as good as Macewen, cheaper, and they are very reliable, as far as good customer service and as a company! I had ordered my HVAC and Headlight Switch Overlays from them for my T/A and within 4 days of ordering, they came to my door!
It is always however your choice on where you get the stuff for your car, I'm just stating my experience with this company (as I have ordered many things from them) and one of the reasons I had gone with Hawks is that some friends told me about them, and I don't regret ever ordering anything from them!
