I was considering that, but there aren't any places around here that handle custom low volume orders..

Edit: Looking for annodizing options as well.

If you're willing to wait like a month, maybe two, I can re-anodize it for you. I have all the equipment for it, but just need to finish up all GB stuff first before I start on other custom things.

Wow dude, you own all the equipment?  Amazing.  I'll take note, I may be looking to redo my LZ-GH!

KMAC2 is hard anodized, meaning it is more resistant, harder to match colors, and even more expensive. If you want to redo it, you might want to consider the fact.

Need a better monitor :)   It's there, but it's slight.

It's difficult to tell for sure, IMHO, because the apparent color changes with the reflected light.  Since there are two parts, they will not be exactly the same angle with respect to the eye.  Still, if OCD kicks in then that's it.

No, the two tone was really a botched run and were offered at a discount as far as I know. In that sense these are more rare. lol
When it comes to custom keyboards, Korans are perfectionists.

This is the KMAC 2, they weren't sold at a discount and almost all kmac 2s have this problem, just that with some of the cases the tone is almost nonexistent but with others it is clearly visible. Some people even reported this problem with the 456GT.

It's really tough to tell on these. I'd say lighting makes a huge difference on what you're seeing. I'm almost wondering if the hard anodizing was a little lighter in some areas, mainly the shell sides and top?

I see it as a little annoying, but it adds some character ;)

I do agree though, it's almost too bad the KMAC 2 only came in titanium, but this is really thick anodizing.
