Thanks for the suggestions. I like the idea of spinners. To answer your other question I want it to look good, but I'm not about to make it 'real' bling. For example if Im thinking about spinners - I'll probably go looking at toy automobiles and see if there isnt something I cant cannabilize from there. If I add $$$ signs, they will probably be plastic or wood painted chrome or gold.
I completely understand that.
Did you ever see the the $24K PC.

I'm sure there are more expensive ones out there but I thought you might like to see one that was painted with real gold.

get some good coats of clear gloss to protect that gold finish--it will tarnish very quickly. Nice idea!!
In a time of chimpanzees I was a monkey.
I have to say this AT LEAST once on this worklog....

you should make a dolla sign badge and slap that sucker right on the top.
Darn it. Spacehonkey beat me to it. You can get R/C Car wheels that are chromed out for intakes to totally get the super bling effect.

Some pictures of reassembling to test if everything still fits and works.
The top is a little splotchy- dark and light spots- not completely uniform. The case fits much tighter, but everything still works.
haha, that's so frickin' awesome. Love it.

really you guys have never seen gold?? its the only kind i use that chrome and black, btw try putting a real srinner on like the side of the case then lighting it up internally with some lazer leds, atd look real cool, and add a small motor so it spins at like 20 rpm then put a plexiglass cover over the rim. yeah...
