Anyone know where to buy PCI-Slot Covers?

Sn0wMan · 25-August-06, 06:41 PM

I apologize if this is in the wrong section, but I am looking for some silver/chrome PCI slot covers. The only place I found to buy them was here, but I learned a long time ago not to buy something that doesn't have a picture... I also found some on ebay, but they all seem to have a dell logo on them. I want the shinier ones and not the dull metal. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the links. That is exactly what I wanted. + Reppage as soon as I can

@Marc: I meant the ones in the links above. I have a DFI LP, so I really don't wanna cover up that UV goodness!

Does anyone know what kind of metal these are typically made of, and if they take paint well?

I think there all steel, i have aluminum ones in my case, and i painted them with some acrylic paint, but it scraps off you would want to usee like car paint with primer really to get a permanant hold, or get powdercoat, or even anodized ones, probally cheapest to buy them painted, just google it
