Asus Xonar DG Shroud

[maniac]

It's been some time since I've been thinking about making a shroud for the Xonar DG. Personally I hate how it looks from the case window, the pink jack and the capacitors just look yuk!

Now before taking it out and switching to onboard until I start and finish this mod, I was thinking if anyone has done it before or has any idea how to do it? I am thinking something like the sexy high end Xonars and the Phoebes . I have access to plexi if that helps with ideas.

Thanks in advance,
maniac

Not sure if it's really practical to be honest.

It doesn't really have any screw holes in the corners so you'd have to find another way to mount acrylic to PCB, and with the components on the PCB sticking out, that makes things near impossible.

For what it's worth, you may be better just buying a better soundcard?

I got it last week, and I'm not planning on changing it anytime soon.
For now I'll try to live with it until something hits me
