Yow,

I just finished sandpapering and spraypainting my Tibook. In a few minutes I will go out to a studio where they made a transfer of my corporate logo. The creating and placing of the transfer costs me a measly 45 euro's

I managed to keep the lighting logo on the tft-cover completely transparant.

I still don't know if it's possible to paint the trackpad, as the grey bothers me.

I would love to, but it isn't finished yet, and my buddy with the cam is on holiday till saturday.

I had to take out the keyboard, unplug the connector to get the paint perfect. So far, everything goes well, I didn't spill paint on my tft nor on my trackpad. Oh, it looks so SHINY

It's hard to resist the urge to continue with it while the paint is still drying.

just be patient..it'll be worth it. Are there any other known pbg4 mods? All I have seen yet are modded g3 pismo's. This makes it even more special doesn't it?

I did three more paintjobs, because the previous layers were fighting a smallscale war who could creep onto eachother

The rear is the hardest part to do.

anyway, still no cam. I intend to make a QuicktimeVR movie of the whole thing. Be a little more patient.

So let me get this straight: You covered up the beautiful scratch resistant brushed titanium finish with an easily scratched, chipped, soft paint?!

Ok...
