the_snitch Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 BEAUTIFUL!!THAT'S JUST BEAUTIFUL!!! Was the paint airbrushed on and then glossed over? I love modding my gadgets (see Titanium P800 or Tahiti MGF) Let me know, (now if only I had an iBook) 585320433[/snapback] The paint job cost me $60 Kiwi (around $35 US) :D It was around 3 coats of black, plus 2 clear coats airbrushed on. He laquered the finish for me too. It was sooo cheap, its just cos he hasn't started his company yet.

the_snitch Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 Dang~ that is a cool mod...But if I had extra $400 to spend, I would probably upgrade my HDD and RAM. 585320883[/snapback] well its lucky this only cost me around $30, plus 5 hours of my time :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/273473-my-black-ibook/page/2/#findComment-585321609 Share on other sites More sharing options...

robniep Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 That's awesome, be very cool if the trackpad was black though. You should see how much you'd be able to sell them on ebay for ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/273473-my-black-ibook/page/2/#findComment-585321838 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac-It-Up Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 hey snitch you could use that mod for the color sheet and make it red (make the apple on the back red)--> iBook U2 edition :laugh: you know that mod by steveFC Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/273473-my-black-ibook/page/2/#findComment-585354191 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its ALOT more labour intensive than i think any of you could possibly realise. You basically pull the computer down to its lowest form, it takes alot of care not to break anything. BTW if you live in NZ and want this done, PM me and i'll see what I can do. If your outside NZ, im sure you could ship to me, and i could get it done much cheaper than the US $400 job colorware rip off. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/273473-my-black-ibook/page/2/#findComment-585354295 Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_snitch Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 Wow, that looks amazing :cool: :D More....pics.....please.... :pinch: 585358106[/snapback] Well ok...just for you :D Note how the edge of the lid framing the screen is white. My friend originally forgot to paint it as he had the lid face down when he sprayed it. I was gunna take it back for him to finish, but ended up just sanding the edge smooth white. It actually looks real nice. Also, teh tabs on teh keyboard i forgot to get painted. :pinch: But, im getting them done, dont worry :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/273473-my-black-ibook/page/2/#findComment-585359700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
