Ferrari Mod

[slobra]

My plan is very simple and shouldnt take me to long. I want to creat a case that REPRESENTS ferrari.

First off i want to find a very square clean case. IMO the Lian Li PC-65 would be the best. But i really dont want to spend that much money if i dont have to. Does anyone know of another decent quality case with a flat front that dosnt cost $130?

Next i want it to apear carbon fiber, I know i can not afford carbon fiber (well i hear its expensive), but i know you can buy sheets of a sticker that appears carbon fiber, does anyone know where i can buy it?

I plan on keeping the front very clean with just a ferrari emblem in the center and an "eninge start" button as my power button.

The inside will have red cold cathodes, and all the wires will be wrapped in UV yellow.

Any answers or advice is geartly apretiated,

Lian Li has a few cases around the $100 price tag.

How much money do you want to spend on a case?

dont do sticker carbon fibre, paint it on. you can get a nice effect with some black and grey-brown paint and some large mesh, and a little patience.

i get the feeling you want the outside to look like carbon fibre, but i think it would be cool to have the inside painted like carbon fibre, and then have the outside either black, red, or yellow.

airscoops or anything like that?

Do you have any pictures of the CF using mesh?

and im thinking about the airscoops still, i want it to look clean so i would have to fiberglass them on.

The biggest problem i am having right now is finding an embelm. I would like the "prancing stallion" emblem, wich is the chrome hourse.

Any help or advice is apretiated.

ive never done the carbon fibre paintjob myself, but ive seen it done, and it CAN look very real and very good too. ill see if i can find a suitable mesh and some good paint colours.

as for airscoops, ill look at some pictures.

ferrari emblem... how would you feel about stealing one? short of that, you would probably have to get a piece of plastic and paint it, or do some very tricky carving in a block of wood or clay. i highly doubt that i can help get a hold of a proper emblem, so i would suggest doing some test painting or carving depending on if you want proper relief on the stallion, or just a picture of it.

I was just browsing Ebay and saw this emblem, not sure if it is what you are looking for. But Ebay sells lots of stuff and you might find something.
