Historically the answer would have been no, but in the last year or so they seem to be becoming a little more open to this kind of request - you can only ask.

Would they charge you extra, Likely some extra cost but if it's a full service it will likely be minimal as the polished parts would have been polished anyway.

thanks Roff. the reason i asked is a while back i saw someone selling a motors with 2 different bezels. one being the knurled and the other being the cut polish (or whatever its called) i just figured there must be other people who like the motors t bezel but the high polish finish of the regular motors.
