xbox 360 case mod

xbox · Post by **xbox** » Wed Jul 19, 2006 9:12 am

I opened up my 360 so I could give it a custom paint job
I didn't touch any of the electronics just the plastic casing so I could paint it.
here a some pictures

The paint I used krylon black hammer metal paint which give it a realy nice and professional texture.
tell me what you think.

Very slick. I would have gone with a glossier black or different color, but it looks great. Good job.

Looks great.

Makes me want to buy to go compulsively spend $600 on a 360 and stuff to go with it.

Judging by this pic, I would probably say spray.

lol, Funny, I did this to my old PC case, but Instead of just doing the whole thing black, I pinstriped it. Now my case is full of Cup noodle fronts.

Very Nice Job, and what a sweet setup

Jaesus, nice setup.
Good job on the 360, the chrome is gunna look sweet.

xbox · Post by **xbox** » Fri Jul 21, 2006 4:37 am

ya but the tricky part is the the xbox 360 thing on the side is engraved and the chrome is real bendy so i'l have to fill that up or just push in the chrome sheet
and that silver buton is gonna become black vinal with a hole cut out for the power symbol
