Those of you who have the authentic Gialla grille.

I just ordered a authentic Gialla grille from BP, I was wondering if it come with the center support bar, mesh (if so, what kind), and mounting screws.

Yes on the center support. I used sand paper to rough up the support to make it appear flat black. It comes from Gialla pretty shiny. You can have it painted flat black but 5 mins of sanding the gloss provided the same results. The grille does come with a metal mesh but I didn't use it. I opted for the automesh plastic mesh. The plastic mesh has been on a year and still looks great. There are no mounting screws. You use the existing push pin fasteners on top that hold your OEM grille in place and 3M tape on the bottom. Congrats on the grille. I waited two months to get mine and while I do like the grille, I think I'm putting my OEM back on after I refinish it.

Thanks! I almost had to wait 3 month for their next shipment, luckily I bought the last one they got in stock.

BTW, does the original mesh look that bad?

Yeah, the Gialla mesh is not the way to go. Do a search for Automesh. I think I got it shipped for $18-20 bucks. You cut it to fit but looks much better.
