Pimp my LZ-SE
« on: Sun, 08 September 2013, 22:53:47 »
So I have a korean custom (LZ-SE) with a scratch that needs some fixing.

But if I needed to re anodize or powder coat it I guess I should be a little unique. I already have a pink 456gt so unless I do hot pink I guess I want to avoid another color like that)

What color anodize should I do? (maybe an attention catcher)

Anyone know how I might fill in a hairline scratch?

The one I have does not have an engraving where the -LZ- is usually (above arrow keys), I might have access to a premium CNC machine at school to engrave something else, any ideas?

SHOULD I TURN IT INTO A PAPERWEIGHT?

If it's not like mistakemistake's, you're doing it wrong.

I think a matte gold would look good.

matte gold
that'd look nice, but 'gold' anodising quite often isn't a very nice gold
powder coating on the other hand...

I was actually really leaning towards apple green or mint gum.. or whatever mix between green and blue pastel is possible Maybe a purple plate. Seems like anodize cost for one board will hit near $100 and to do home anodize would be around $80 and seems quite dangerous ;_;
