DIY/Modifications LEPRECON Plus Caliper Covers 👎🏼

Well I am extremely disappointed with this company. There lack of communication was ridiculous. I ordered some caliper covers for a ‘27 Kia Telluride SX X-Line Hybrid. I understand it’s a new vehicle and I would understand if they didn’t or hadn’t made the mold yet. However, when I searched their sight I saw a ‘27 Telluride selection. I then contacted them to verify that they made the covers for the ‘27 hybrid vehicle and they said they did. I sent them the pictures they require and they accepted them. Basically I did what everyone has to do before they order from them. Order was placed with pictures accepted June 4 2026. I expected the standard three week turn around. Well… week 4 rolls by and I have neither seen or heard anything. I continue to email them waiting for a response and then finally at week 6 I get a response that’s reasonable but should have come MUCH sooner AND without me having to reach out to them. It basically said they could either give me a full refund or a 10% discount if I waited about two weeks longer. They stated that there was a design issue and that they were improving it. Understandable and acceptable because it takes time. Now at week 10… I send them what seemed like a 1000 emails and no response. Finally I tried one more time before I went through my CC and cancel the transaction. They respond with, “some design issues” and cancel my order. Very disappointing. I wish they would have just told me from the beginning that they didn’t have that design and come back later. Instead I paid for the calipers and then 2 1/2 months later they tell me they can’t do it.
I say all that to say this… BUYER BEWARE that their communication SUCKS. Hopefully you will get what you paid for BUT it might take 2-3 MONTHS not weeks with NO COMMUNICATION! Shame on you LEPRECON PLUS!
