Yes there were at least 2 different silver faces for the U2000, a brushed-aluminum original face & later a "Rowland" microbuffed face. There possibly may have also been a v-cut face toward the end of the run; I thought there was anyway.
One thing about the unit that you currently have up for sale is that it's not just the face that was upgraded, they also made some changes internally that made this great player sound even better. Perhaps the factory would be able to perform an internal retrofit-upgrade of your older player; you could always ask? Possibly they'd also have some leftover "new" faceplates. I don't know if the older units can be upgraded by an aftermarket shop such as Boelen Electronics back in Iowa where EAD originated.
The # is 641-469-5092; repairs are "option 4" on the autoattendant.
