I picked up a set of Diamante's for cheap. They have trashed foam surrounds but otherwise seem fine. I plan on veneering the "marble" with a beautiful teak or rosewood- I haven't decided.The angles will look pretty cool with the right veneer. The marble is not so cool but rigid and heavy. 

Curious if some upgraded drivers would improve the sound- as apposed to re-foaming. I realize this is a shot in the dark but my understanding is Roy from GMA has passed so not sure where to get driver advice. Open to any and all suggestions.

As a previous owner of GMA speakers I would suggest you finish your cosmetic work and then spend some time listening before messing with the crossovers.  While yes to a point Roy had to parts source to a price point he also parts sourced to a voicing he thought was correct for his designs.  Following the advice of Kenjit and others and making wholesale changes and upgrades may result in nothing more than an unlistenable speaker with premium parts.  I would trust Roy's judgement over the "self appointed" experts. But feel free to trust whoever you choose.
