Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2007 9:27 am Post subject: My first case mod
I started with silver base coat. I'll be adding another coat of silver then some blue metal flake. I get my neon light for under the jewel monday so i'll add that later in the week. Its not much but its my first mod. I have a broken xbox that im giving to a friend for parts hopefully he'll let me keep the case so i can tinker. It's still taped up because I really did feel like re-taping it all.

OK added the blue paint but had no camera so you also get the neon update in one. You can't tell but i also got a new HDD special thanks to burner for the multi-hour late night phone support

This is the silver with blue metal flake over it. You basically can't tell unless your close enough to smell it.

Finally the neon. The switch is still hanging out the back. I did most of this in my dorm room with nothing but a leatherman tool. So I haven't the right tools to make a hole in the case. until this weekend
