i thought of using clear acrylic, but im afraid u will see the cacatness inside.
so i sprayed it to a mirror finish to hide the internals while the lid is down

haha...why don't u mod the inside also...so no need to hid the 'cacatness' that u were talking bout rclxms.gif

Aiyak, why need sembunyi² dude? Minor improvements inside like sleeving , cable management , respray / polish & voila!, spanking new look.

Normal for 1st timers 2 b cacat here & there. The best learning process is making mistakes & then learn better way of doin' it.

Btw, frm the sketches, can c u hav gr8 ability 2 churn out ideas. Mebe can bcome like sherren too in near future. All da best frm me thumbup.gif

If u cut & made that whole frame on ur own, then I must say ur woodworking skills r really gr8 notworthy.gif

Just need rigorous sanding on the edges & 1 round of final fine sanding. After applyin' finishes sure eye-catching resut.

I'm seldom awed by other mods but urs really somtin' I need stay tuned

maybe you should just tint it rather than spray the whole thing, IMO

Why ask others 2 do¿ Absolutely no thrill. Better mould ur own. Noways u can get fibreglass powders easily
