My ULTIMATE car would be the Lambourghini Diablo SE30.. but i aint that rich yet :(
the car im getting is the Nissan Skyline. Its going to get tricked out similar to the one in my sig, but in my own style... and before i even start the project, il let u know 1 of my ideas... its going to incorporate a "blacklight" scenario, just like your comp. just coz what you have done looks so awesome, and i think it will look spanking in a motor :) If it isnt already when i buy it, im also gonna supe it up to atleast 500 ponies, to be able to pull quick quarters, with a mountain of ICE and mods in it :D
I just cant wait til i can get my hands on it. *Paces room counting the days and the pennies* :p

Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
So,... I have good news. Bill Owens from WWW.MNPCTECH.COM is giving me replacment fan grills to replace the cheap crppy wire ones I was going to be using. They are new in design and not finished. He said the they will be done in about 2 - 3 weeks maybe sooner. He's going to be sending me like 5 of them, the 120mm versions:) You can see them here:
http://mnpctechcom.temp.powweb.com/g...to=272&cat=555
All I have to say about them is WOW, friggin WOW. Let me tell you,... I dont really go all out with fan grills, hence the crappy ones I was going to use. I'm not into the grills with the crazy designs. I like simple and sexy, to the point. Bill friggin nailed it with these grills! GAWD. I am going to use four of them under the radiator housing for the 120mm fans in there. I am also goign to use one in the back of the case. I really would like to add another fan to the case but I'm sure if thats going to happen. There is going to be one 120mm fans just for the PSU. I might add one of those grills to that fan and design around it. I think I am going to do that, Seriously. He is also sending me some U-Channel trim mold in hopes that it will work with the holes for the hoses. I was going to use the foam before but I wasn't 100% with that idea, niether were you guyz. Someone told me to try the trim mold Bill has for sale on his site here:
http://www.mnpctech.com/UChannel.html
Usually it's used for more open edges but I really need something other then a grommet to cover up the edges of my holes. I dont know how well it will work inside a holes this small. Knowing this Bill was still kind enough to send me some:) Thanks Bill! I had come up with the idea of having a sponsor or a "special thanks to" plate on the computer. It will most likely be a piece of acrylic cut to a nice rectangular shape. I will engrave any sponsors I have on it. Once done I will light it up. I think I'll do something like this:
______________________
Special Thanks to:

You think I should have "special thanks to" or "sponsors"? I dont know, I'll figure that out later. I cant wait to get home so I can work on the UV green insides.
Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
SURPRISE!!!! It's an update!!! Kind of!!! Check it out,...
Heres what I did yesterday. I started bending the UV green inside.
The the gap in the corner that wa kind of bothering me. I'm ok with it now. You cant tell once it's diffused.
Got this the other day to cut away the bend line so the edge of the bend won't be so round. I'm not going to do that anymore. I'm going to use it for engraving now:)
All done,... but to short. As I said in my last post,... some how it shrunk. So I will flattent his out and use it for one of the other covers.
Heres what it's going to look like once done. Keep in mind this plastic isnt diffused. It will be more bright once it is.
Ok,... I'm off to the shop to start. PEACE!
Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
Ok, heres my update.
VFD's UV insert. I used the my orbital sander to diffure instead of the coarse saned paper. It was so much easier. It leaves a nice finish too.
Very cool.
LED cover and insert.
My first engraving. It's pretty cool. I am really going to enjoy doing it more.
Here I'm bending the tower insert. I did it while it's lit up like that. Pretty cool beans. It took me to attempts to get it right. Well,... I got the first bend right, I mean you cant really mess hat up. Its the second bend that was off a bit. I could barely get the insert inside the tower. I flattened it out and did it again. I nailed it the second time.
Here is the tower insert almost finished. I still have to diffuse the back side of it. I tried my best to light it up so it would look kind of like the way it would if I had all the UV LEDs I haved planned for it installed.
Here is the LED cover installed to the case with some UV light. This is pretty much whats its going to look like.
Here is the VFD cover. The VFD cover is goign to have alot of UV green buttons. This is why I didnt cut out alot of designs.
So what do you think?

Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
CHECK THIS OUT!!! I was suspended from WWW.BIT-TECH.NET for having a signature that was to long!!! My signature is only 201 characters!!! It's the same signature I have for all my logs! I initally was told by a member over the that he thinks my sig is to long because it got cut off and that my sponsor might get mad. So I was like what??? So I went to my profile and posted my signature again. I then get a PM from this admin guy that said that I posted my sig again even though he said it was to long. If I do it again he will probably suspend me! Then he replaced my sig with some crap liek tribaloverkill's sig was owned by whatever his name is. Having a sign to long and is a capital crime and will be punished! I sent him a pm back with the sig rule. The sig rule says that the sig has to be within a reasonbale length! There was no specific number! I told him to grow because of the stupid message he left me and that wsa it,... he suspended me. So,... I am totally done with that forum. My log over ther is dead. You see,... this is the same thing that happened over at that other site,... the one that said that I had to deem them as my home in order to post my log there. This is even worse! 201 characters! I can name a file on my pc with something longer!!! Thats crap.
Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
total bullcrap, somebody needs to tell the admin to make a specific number. total bullcrap man.
