Just beautiful work Matt! I could see a lot of people wanting to buy these trim pieces. I'm also very interested in seeing the faceplate when done.

What I did back in July.  I considered phoning Emo to see if I could purchase another faceplate so I could have my way with it to do the same to it as the trim pieces, but I got lazy  And now that Ill have a XPA-2 in my hands very soon, I probably will sand the pieces for something to do, but currently my 5 sits with just silver screws and no trim atm. |

Did you brush them to a mirror finish? |

They are pretty close to mirror, I ended up at 2k grit with wet, could probably get better results. But hands were getting sore after spending 2 nights straight sanding. Should have used a D/A lol.
I polished them with some old polish for mags I had in the garage. May work on them more this winter, depending how much I feel like staying inside, or how cold it gets outside.

I tried that also, but used a polishing wheel. Bad side was it rounded over the edges so I would have had to make an insert for the center grove and holes, good side, it only took 10 minutes to get a mirror finish. |
