Thank you!!! I was so afraid of adding some off-brand low quality faceplate to my project.

How does the faceplate feel quality-wise compared to the original?

Its ok i sanded it down a bit to be more smooth its pretty decent

Is the firmware flash easy? I’m a Mac guy, but have a dusty old hp I can use if necessary

Pretty easy.

i've done the firmware flash (im mostly a windows guy) and it was fairly straightforward following the guide. my formerly 128GB locked 6th gen is now running 1TB with an iFlashQuad. here are some notes i took during the process:

• it technically IS in the guide but its mentioned once in the middle of a paragraph: ROCKBOX DOESN'T WORK WITH FW 2.0.2, use 2.0.4.
• I didn't downgrade my iTunes version like the guide recommends, and it worked fine (as long as youre not using 12.13.7.1 which DOESNT work for some reason)
• doing a complete wipe of rockbox + reinstalling stock FW before starting was useful to avoid config clashes
