I think they have a good reputation. Perhaps our friends across the pond (like Jim) would have a better idea. I think I got my gear shift knob from them a while back and shipping UK to Canada was only a 10 days or so if I recollect.

That's not a bad deal from Mina Gallery. Didn't know they do it in black powder coated. I've got their lower grille which I chose because it had a rubber surround. Had to fashion my own mounting tabs by drilling theirs and using stainless steel screws (gotta use stainless steel, others will rust) but it was pretty easy after removing the splitter my way...in pieces. Doing the upper mesh insert is easy. Just dremmel out the vanes and put the insert in between the the inner and outer grill pieces and reinstall.

No, the bottom is not easy and you have to take out the splitter (horizontal piece) and the verticle vanes, tow hook cover, etc to do it anyways. The real way to do it is up from the bottom after you take off the thousand screws tray. I on the otherhad, never contemplated replacing the mesh with the original again so, after taking off the splitter, I just broke the other part in pieces and pulled it out.It's my car and I'm lazy and I can do it that way if I want...
