Here is a pic of my newest baby! Unfortunatly the mobo is out of order at the moment so the power & controller ports dont power up, but they are UV as well. Once I get it finished I will take some better pics.

Thanks! I used 5mm LEDs in the top & 3mm in the underglow. The 3mm LEDs look white, but maybe it is just the surface it was on. I want to swap out all 3mm with 5 mm UV.
As soon as I get a working mobo for it I will power it up with all the mods lit & take a pic. I was going to do a DVD drive cut out/windows but the guy that was going to buy the box didnt want it cut out.
Also I just ordered 100 LED rings, each holds 10 LEDs. I want to put one of these in when I get them. Let me know if anyone is interested in making there own Jewel rings or wants one a bit brighter than the standard 8 LED rings around. I will be selling them cheaper than the 8 LED rings! service@paintedxbox.com _________________ LED Rings $6 (doesnt include LEDs) LED ring pic

Hey Jiggy, how hard is it to do the cutout windows??? I upgraded both cases in my xbox and now I'm left with 2 xbox cases that I don't know what to do with. I'm thinking of sending 1 of them to you and painting the other one myself. I just don't know whats a good primer or paint to use for it.. Do you have any suggestions for me??? _________________ Xbox V1.3

My first suggestion to most people is to rent or borrow an airbrush! Spray paint comes out too quickly & blobby. You will just ruin the box or make it look cheap.
I have found a good method to cut out the drive windows, pretty much flawlessly. I dont have any pics & dont want to give away my secret, but a dremmel was my last method that worked well, so give that a shot. _________________ LED Rings $6 (doesnt include LEDs) LED ring pic

I just finalized my order & will be getting some rings with spots for 10 LEDs & some with 12 LEDs. The 2 extra will only be a few more dollars, but I wasnt sure which people would go for.....let me know which you prefer. They should be here in the next week or two. _________________ LED Rings $6 (doesnt include LEDs) LED ring pic
