Wow now that's fantastic! Another extreme product and review. Great one Jim. I wonder who here in the states specializes in that...

Very nice Jim.

So how much did it cost to spraw the whole case ?

Outside of the case is £90 (excl VAT). You can have the inside+outside done for a little bit more, and can even have them in different colours :p
 
Hi there I'm not too sure but I think I have something wrong with my IE7 browser, the only pictures I can see on the review are the ones with the box with the parts covered in bubble wrap, are there other pictures and if so any idea what's stopping me viewing them?

Thanks
 
I have to be honest, if your some1 who has to have a pimped casing/interior - those prices are quite alot less than I imagined.

If I didn't have to toally deconstruct my case to get it done, I would get the interior painted :)
 
Hi KimandSally,

Can you please let me know if this is still a problem, or has been fixed by clearing ourt your temp internet files?

Thanks :)

very nice job but is it only me that thinks the £90 + VAT is a little expensive?

For that price I'd have a go myself with aerosols, laquer and wet n dry.

Compared with other sites its very cheap (i've seen £200+ for a spray job). Also dont forget this is powder coating and not painting - you can take a hammer to this paint job and it won't chip.

Powder coating and 2 Pack are probably the hardest wearing paints period. Definitely very hard to scratch/chip, as opposed to regular enamel. Jim has motivated me now to get mine done, although, I may go the 2 pack road because I don't have access to a baking oven and it requires less layers.

Please do tell what color ur thinking of mate... Or possible start a thread putting it to a vote perhaps?
 
yeah I really dunno mate, because my new build is going to be light on with the case bling. An external and internal paint job will prevent it being just another aluminium 830 stacker. My project is called AquAus, but I don't want a horrid aqua colour...I hate aqua rofl. I'll have a look at some colour charts and put it to a forum vote on the the ones I really like.
