Quick question
I just searched eBay for M17x R2 and found a couple sellers selling "M17x R2 R3 Keyboard Bezels"
One if the big differences between the two are the media buttons on the upper right. Are these two compatible with one another? I prefer the look of the R3 buttons.

Uhh, that would be a No!
I looked up the bezel you mentioned. Those ones are for the R3. The bezels for the R2 and R3 are completely different. Here is where I got the bezel for my R2.

They are very different. The R3/R4 one surrounds the keyboard while the M17x/M17x R2 covers the hinges and the part above the keyboard.
Here is what you need for your M17x R2:
