heres the other update
i started painting it black
here it is a couple of hours later after a few touch ups, don't worry about the darker parts thets where i touched up and it wasnt dry yet gamecube log came out nicely...wish i could say the same about the ati logo
now to let it sit and dry for a day or two, also i was able to salvage the power switch which i hope to use
that is all for now until i order my parts
