I ordered some HM speaker covers.
It appears that Modfather is pretty busy or buys time on a CNC.
It's been 2 weeks of pending already.
The person that tipped me off on the grills already rece8ved their topper and pingulp.
I must assume the CNC cut items are sat on to maximize use the fewest times.

Just a tip for all of you.
Normally after 2 weeks of pending I would be calling Visa due to suspicion.

At 70 cents on the dollar, I bought a $25 item with $19 international shipping USPS.
HM speaker grills

I have done, and can make my own mods.
But CNC cut items are not in my skill set.

Well hopefully they don't hit you with a heavy courier fee as well. This happened to me before I started using Shippsy, I got charged like $35CDN processing fee for a $20 item, plus the cost of shipping from the US. Never again! Now I pay my $6.99CDN to have the item shipped to a pickup spot in Markham. Very convenient and no duties or extra fees. Still have to pay the 13% tax on items over $40CDN but that is the case on any shipment.

There were 4 choices for shipping available.
I have always had the best luck with usps.
DHL was an option (yikes!)

Speaker panels finally came in.
Took a while to get made, but once the shipping label was printed it came in 4 days USPS, no duty.
$75 after exchange to my mailbox.

Modfather makes some great stuff. Communicates really quickly when you email him. I got excited for about 2.3 seconds when I saw a CGC MM topper on Pinside for sale, from someone in Canada even... then I saw the price. ($2900USD). Modfather's topper was $321, looks pretty sweet up there.
