This nice REP is on the way, but I want to make it closer to a gen.
From the pics I've seen, the major flaws that bother me are:
- bezel: the pearl is too low, and not centered like the gens.
- dial: the "clown feet" logo, and font.
- HE valve size.
- AR quality.
Obviously, there are more flaws, but these are the ones that bother me the most.
I think I can solve the bezel flaw, by getting this:

Its not gen, but looks much better than the Narikaa's PO IMO. What do you think about it?
The AR can be solved by using Chief's service, does anybody know, if he sells AR coated crystals without me sending him my own?
The HE valve is tricky. Anyone know a solution?
The dial is another problem, I couldn't find good REP dials (like the bezel), and the gen costs way too much. Any ideas there?
Thanks a lot, I'm looking forward to a nice project, upgrading this REP.
