Wow, impressive. See, I KNEW empeg could give birth to the #1 money making scheme out there. Just make something new and cool for the empeg, market it direct-to-geek, and let the dollars (or Euros) roll in.
303, I guess all we need now is lighted buttons for the new metal face plates. Haha, the design of these plates could lead to a whole new market for custom faces.
Oh, and has anyone ever seen the 9 (or so) other facia designs that lost out to the "airplane wing" one we all love so much?

Do the non-anodized ones include the light colored (stainless steel?) screws as shown in the photos?
They look awesome! Nice job.

Now don't these look beautiful. I'm in love with the polface.
I don't suppose your looking at doing a matching handle as well are you?

it is hard to do a handle, because it is so tiny.

The Euro currently equals 0.997098 U.S. dollars. So the polished face, for example, would be $149.56.

Wow, I was the first to buy. I can't wait to get my new brushed aluminum face. It should go well with my JVC head unit, which also has a brushed aluminum face.
I'll post pictures as soon as I get it. One quick question, is there any discount if I purchase another one? My wife will probably be jealous and want one for her car too.

Thought - Tim (NewFace) makes the plates, Steve (Darkstorm) makes the lenses - perhaps you two should talk, and 'maybe' Steve can make lenses that are designed for the new buttons and shape of the metal plates?

the VolKnob is designed to let light through
I assume it lets light through the little black dots on the end of the knob. What color is the light that comes through?
I was thinking of doing something like that for the lighted button kit with an opaque knob.....

the black dots are just holes, so the light that comes through is what you made it.

WoW! That looks REALLY nice! The black button is a real improvement with the AnoFace.
I hope you'll keep on making them for a fair amount of time because now I can't afford one. But I should be able to next year.
