I'm not a huge fan of red (even tho red and white are my university's colors), but aside from my personal tastes, you did a very good job, nice finish on the back too. I haven't read the details yet, so I'll pop right on over there and take a look.

Speaking on which my notebook was recently stolen, a friend of mine propose give me her very old presario v2000 notebook.
I follow the hardware improvements, paint job and integrated wireless mouse dongle to have some fun while I get a new laptop, and the results are very interesting.
Thank you (wipeout) for the tutorials.

What kind of paint did you use? Automotive? I would hope so since it is so much more durable than spray can enamel.
