I can honestly say my bezel is nearly perfect, exactly as intended (see it here: http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=10;action=display;threadid=18812;start=40 ) I think it looks great, but I still love the tinted glass! :) Maybe some tints are so dark you can't see *anything* except the image through it. I can still see through my glass and so the bezel is still visible. I think mounting bolts etc. would easily show through if I hadn't hid them. |

Would the best choice be anti reflective, tinted glass like used in shop windows? An even bigger question would be where to get it from? |
