What did you use to tighten that so much to bend the mounting plate?
Im assuming you had to bend the plate to make it peel like that, or you just got a dud.
lame.

Who did the chroming on that, and what the hell did you do to it?
Finger to tigthen it, exactly like the manual said and all out the box from new!
It'll be going back as its not worth anything at all.
I think you got a dud. My plate on my fuzion is bent from the force and it isn't peeled at all.

Wow, that's probably a dud... my mounting plate is fine!
Definately a bad chroming job. If you know a local chroming shop you can have them rechrome the mounting plate. Another good option is to have it replaced.
I still don't know/understand why my Fuzion isn't chrome...

Mine isn't chromed.
"Finger tight" is subjective at best. It's like me telling some newb, who's never heard one, how loud a D12SM-12 is over the net.
I just want to know if we're going to see Pete constantly trash the FuZioN from now on like dnottis and NickS continually trash the DDC.

If your annoyed by sigs telling you to put things in your sig, then put this in your sig
Bribery won't work on me...just say NO to AT!!!
I doubt Pete will continue to trash the Fuzion but the latter is definitely true."Finger tight" is subjective at best. It's like me telling some newb, who's never heard one, how loud a D12SM-12 is over the net.

They used to be made from 2B finish stainless, they are now made from chrome plated mild steel because it is signifigantly cheaper.
The older stainless ones are far superior, although maybe not as much "bling".
