There is a little bit of a distortion but I can live with it as a new piece was not an option @ $600!!

I used a cerium oxide, a polishing mandrel / pad & a cordless drill. Along with a lot of time & patience.

Stopped by my favorite PVC supply store the other day & picked up all my fitting & lengths of pipe for $65, got all my bulkheads already for $80, check valves for $80. Just waiting for my 16 gate valves from the states all for $220 with shipping, hope they get here soon.

Have an interesting idea for my sump, now I just have to do a concept draft.
