    How? By doing a lot of painting and sanding. Probably somewhere around 15 coats of an ultra-gloss black, with high-grit sanding between each coat. Then a good few coats of clearcoat, again with sanding in between.

    Should you do that with your case? Completely up to you brotha.

    How about reading the guide you took those pics from and quit stealing bandwidth. Host the images yourself. :rolleyes:

    He tells you how to do it in his guide. Wow, you went to the guide on his site, copied the picture urls, then made a thread with the pictures asking us how he did it. :eyebrow:
