Custom Plating for amplifier faceplate......any possible problems

If I were to plate an amplifier faceplate with copper plating simply for cosmetic reasons.

Will this cause any harm to the power amplifier from a functionality stand point?

Its for the smaller Bel Canto power amp.

Its chrome plating or maybe copper plating finish not anodizing. Basic plating.

Original faceplate is aluminum. Screws are connected to the faceplate from the inside of the amp.

Would not wish to fry anything up......

Thanks

Can you show a picture of the finished project?I made a set of Model 19 Altec crossovers for my Altec project, stand alone, made the control panel from 1/8" thick brushed brass. Looks fantastic.
