    Way too long and they weren't even ready when I drove up to them.

    I recommend any other brand than glassworks.

    Terrible Customer service and incorrect quote times for completion.

    and after all payments were made he called me trying to collect a second time on the bedsides that were paid in full on pick up.

    also nothing fit at all.. had to trim the piss out of all pieces and still the corners wont line up and had to lift the hood to make it look somewhat normal.
