Bryan, I know Howell's has a horrible delivery, but their workmanship is very good. I waited five months for many panels and was ready to drive down there. Keep hounding them. If you pre-paid it might be a problem worth reporting to the BBB and e-$$$.
Good luck.
Bought a 27 deck lid from Howell's. Did it fit? Hell no. Had to open up all the seams and rework it. Waited 3 1/2 months for a few other panels. No one answers the phone. I think you are better off calling another distributor and see if they have it in stock. It will probably be made by Howell's but you might get it in a timely manner. Just my 2 cents. Good luck.
Would you be willing to email me a picture of your trunk floor and also let me know what you want for it. My email is bmarker@rhlapp.com. Thanks for your help.
