    Hey, i'm wondering if anyone knows where you can get custom paint jobs done on your case, i'm not very good at this type of thing so i'd prefer to get someone who can actually do it
    Thanks

    you can do 2 things then..take it to a place that does airbrushing( $$$$$$$$$$$$$$)

    or you can get it painted the color you want, put some decals on it then have it clear coated

    Try your local university or art college. The students are always looking for projects, which often involve doing some work for a "client". Usually you don't pay them which is always a bonus :D

    Many t-shirt shops also do airbrushing. But, the ones that I have seen around here not only airbrush t-shirts but they do bike and motorcycle helmets and other stuff, so a PC Panel shouldn't be too much of a stretch. May want to look at those.

    Also many bike shops (Harley Davidson etc...) have an 'in' to airbrushing sources. But this is $$$ (..."can you say cha-ching???")

    airbrush isn't THAT expensive if you consider what you get in the end... sure it,s big bucks out of your pockets but definitly looks better than a sticker or decals and more durable too.

    OR

    you could buy a good airbrush, a compressor and some paints then practice a while on models and do it yourself! If you have little skills in drawings, you'll be fine with the airbrush :D
    (actually I write this as a joke since it's hard to do a great job with an airbrush and would be as expensive as get the job done by a pro... plus there's no chance to screw everything up if done by a pro :D)
