As a point of clarification, Racemesh told me that it would be at least 4 weeks. That's why I ordered it from a CF vendor who said they had it "in stock."
I don't have any Pics yet, but I went with GM's Side Screens and Front Radiator Grille. They look great;a little expensive but they are orignal parts. Chrome and workmanship are
"Maybe the Racemesh rep will come to your house and install it for you, like the rep from Mercado Grilles went to Bluejet's house to install his.
The rep flew 2000 miles or something.......now thats customer service!"
What really would impress me is seeing folks on these forums who purchased and installed the Mercado's himself! I know of one forum member who ordered one from Corvette Central (ie: not delivered via visit by Mercado himself and/or rep) and he thought his Mercado Euro grill was a piece of cr*p and tossed it in the trash!

That member should have taken his concern with the Mercado people.
That's his his bad.
As for throwing it in the trash, I would have gladly taken it and sold it to a Corvette owner who would like it.
The trashed one was the Mercado Euro Exterior (outside) grill, not the inside one. I mean, you could put chicken coop inside the stock grill and it would probably look good. I dont believe I have seen any install pic of a Mercado interior/exterior grill on these forums except provided by Guitarstar whose Mercado grill (s) was personally provided by and installed by Mercado. I do agree they do look good from Guitarstar's provided pics. There simply was not a large enough installed commentary base (one pro and one con) here for me to buy a Mercado (nor, oddly, a contact address/phone number on his web site!), therefore I got the Racemesh.
