Is there anywhere I can buy some pre painted cases.

I unfotunately dont have the time to paint my own.

Not sure about pre-painted but you can buy case wraps that achieve a similar effect.
Check out this page, there are some at the bottom of the page.
Other case wraps can be found at various online vendors and you can even have them made custom from your own drawings.

I was thinking of something more like the Falcon Northwest Mach V Exotix from http://www.falcon-nw.com/

but I wanted a different design which they dont offer.

Adam3da · 25-August-04, 10:51 AM

mabe I wasnt clear enough. I want an airbrushed mural on the case prefrebally in the uk as well.

In the UK, Jonny English would be the person to ask. I am sure he will be along directly.

I love the paint on those cases. The only thing is that it would probably cost quite a bit to get a custom paint job. I like the case wrap idea for the price. You might wanna check out www.mnpctech.com He does custom painting and by far some of the best cases on net that I've seen.

Edit: You should check to see if he can get one to the UK first.

You can always check local listings for custom motorcycle or helmet painters, it's not a big step from one to the other.

do you have a link for Jonny English please

i looked at http://www.mnpctech.com/ordering.html but its the US mabe my last resort.

I have seen a website that already had pre designed cases, but I cant find a link do you know any like that?

Adam3da,

You must have money to burn

Hiring a Professional or Pimp to paint a custom case will not be cheap. Esp if you want a Mural type of painting. Its going to be atleast $300 US, and that will probably be on the cheap side. Also, not to mention the cost of shipping as case around.

You may want to consider a vinyl case wrap, which will be much cheaper.

Well its goona be my dream machine

It gottal look the buisness.

Ime looking at getting Dual Pentium Xeons (3.6 GHZ I think)

Minimum 2 gig of corsair DDR2 ram

Ive already got a Geforce Fx 5900XT overclocked so ile be putting that in and will be getting a Geforce 7 when they are relesaed with at least 500mb of on board ram.

Adam3da · 25-August-04, 05:59 PM

Oh sorry fogot to mention they are all great links but they are in the US

Does anyone know anywhere in the Uk that does them?
Also if i bought it fromt eh US would I have to change the power supply as well if included? (sorry if this is in the wrong forum)

Lunamods · 25-August-04, 06:06 PM

I would think if this is going to be your "Dream" machine, why would you want a pre-painted stock design that several others may already have. You should come up with your own design/idea and see what one of us would charge. I would give you a pretty good deal, cheaper than most. Shipping a case to the UK wouldnt be cheap though,better go aluminum to save on weight if you buy from the US.
