Default Where did you all get your Black Bezel from?

So I've finally built up the courage, and decided that I'm gonna go ahead and black out my Bold and Javelin. I see many of you went thru cnn.cn. My only issue with them is I'm not feeling their shipping time. What about ebay any recommended sellers? Also anything locally in the NYC area?

I got my bezel from cnn.cn in less than a week. It's not that long. I don't know why people think it takes forever, but a week is not that long. Well worth the wait. IMHO

Because you basically pay the same, shipping takes longer (up to 3 weeks due to customs iis not unheard of) and it doesn't include the mesh

Ordered mine on a Fri got it the next Thursday. Mesh wasn't a problem. I still don't see why it's pointless. It works.

Cnn.cn for me. Moving the mesh is extremely easy. Done 3 bezels for friends that ordered via cnn.cn. Mesh isn't an issue. And each time I have ordered from cnn it has take 6-7 buisness days. Not bad at all.

That's the entire point though. You have to transfer the mesh, versus not having to. Why opt to having to remove the mesh from the original bezel when it could be done for you and you have your OEM bezel untouched?

My cnn.cn order took 4 weeks, YMMV but gluck...

What i find odd, is that they sell the OEM silver housing with everything included such as the mesh. Why not the same for the black housing?
