Jim, you should try gold plastic parts on your Blueboy...that look is to die for, IMO.

That p/u does look weird, I wonder what happened, must have been a Friday or a Monday at the factory. Can you drill new holes for the surround and mount it straight?

I'm surprised it passed inspection.

Figured out that I can drill some slots by the plate holes and it will shift over.
Already lost 1mil just by shifting the assembly over.
