As soon as my X-Compact grip module arrives from Sig I am sending it off to Omaha Outdoors to have a Bi-Tone Burnt Bonze cerakote finish applied to the grip module and magazine base plate just like the one pictured below.

I'd leave the baseplate black but that's just me. Gives it a bit more contrast and pop. But overall I always liked spraying frames in that style to give some contrast. Always looked clean. Just hated doing emblems like that though. Always took forever to get it just right.

One of my favorite simple cerakote jobs I ever did was a P226 that a customer brought in for a refreasher. Did a basic trigger job, replaced springs, night sights, and sprayed the slide and controls in a semi gloss black, and the frame in sniper gray. He added black g10 grips. That gun looked very clean when it was all done. Sometimes simple is much better when it comes to cerakote.

I'm only having one magazine base plate cerakoted in burnt bronze. The second will remain black so I can see what it looks like with the rest of the grip module burnt bronze. That's why I ordered another grip module so I can have all black X-Compact as well as burnt bronze. Best of both worlds.

My X-Compact grip module arrived today and I immediately UPS it to Omaha Outdoors for the bi-tone burnt bronze cerakote treatment. Will post pictures when it returns.

That looks nice. How much to have the frame cerakoted?
