okay well i have a cd-rw drive in perfect condition a black cd drive and another lg cd drive (black(BRAND NEW!) i accidently ordered it instead of a cd-rw drive and wanted a cd-rw drive so would anyone be willing to swap all 3!! of these for a cd-rw drive they dont use anymore? or do they have a spare one around or about that i could buy? lol i havent enough money to buy another cd drive online lol looking 4 a second hand one, i want a new one because my old one is white and it looks naff in my black case :D

I am not sure I understand, you want to trade 2 cd-rom and 1 cd-rw drives, for another cd-rw drive that is black in color? Why not just paint your drive?

[Spacehonkey]

Yeah, I'm not following you either. If all you want is a black cd-rw then get a new cover plate or paint it like jdbnsn suggested. If you really wanted to make it blend in with your case then you could make a cd drive stealth mod. Example 1 (http://www.twistedmods.com/article.php?artid=119), Example 2 (http://www.techtastic.ca/articles/stealthdrive.html), Example 3 (http://www.g4tv.com/screensavers/features/42217/Make_a_Stealth_CD_or_DVD_Drive.html), Example 4 (http://www.dennisjudd.com/AZZO%20Mod_2/mod_2.htm).

Heads up. Trading is not allowed on these boards(Section 2.6 of The House Rules). I recommend you read The House Rules (http://thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7312) before you get into trouble.


Trading is not allowed on the boards. It is acceptable to make references to your eBay auction in the 'Hot Hardware Deals', but it is not acceptable to attempt to sell an item publicly through this website.

kk sorry lol :( didnt know well i dont think i have the plate covers! is there another thing i could use?

Black paint. Get paint for plastic, such as Krylon Fusion to get rid of some of the stress. Take off the bezel, give it a quick spray, and you're good to go.

OR Vinyl Dye. It's like paint, but from what I've seen, it won't change the texture of the plastic.

It will, however, give off TONS and TONS of fumes and probably get your whole neighborhood high. Just saying.

[jdbnsn]

Why don't you post a pic of your rig and the drive and we can brainstorm. I'm sure we'll think of something that looks cool.
