How to make a Bigsby B5 mat/satin (whatever)

Hello,
after I tested a lot of Vibratos for my SG I decided to go for a Bigsby B5, but my whole Hardware is satin (Schaller Satin Chrome Hardware)
Is there any way to handle the finish of the Bigsby to make it less shiny. Sanding? Polishing?

Important:
I don't mean AGING!

There really isn't a good way to do it. If it isn't plated, you could try sanding it but it'll be difficult to reach some of the recesses. If it is plated, trying to remove the shiny finish will leave it looking horrible and render it just about worthless.
