Nice but...
This plate is much more professional looking than the factory cover. However, once installed it is not coming off without forcefully ripping it out of the slide. I had to use a hammer and flathead screwdriver to get it off the firearm. And in the process it gets scratched up and looks like junk now. Slipped the cheap looking factory cover back in and accepted the fact it looks cheap.
