DUDE! You could just put some Bondo all over that thing, sand it up, and throw on a couple coats of some glossy black paint and that would look great; seriously!

Bondo! I forgot about that. That would look snazzy! I need to make it look nicer and stuff, but other than that, it's a pretty good start.

Probably just about any hardware or automotive parts store should have it.

I'll check up Home Depot the next time I go there!

Can I use the bondo with the tape still on? I don't know if it'll hold up to well without it? I'm sure I can, but with more bondo!

Got bored again. I made it have some curves now.

Note the bend the top half of the backstand makes. I want to Bondo it like that!

It still has a wobbly problem. I tried to fix it by taking out the 3rd layer of plastic on the bottom ('twas uneven), but it didn't do much. I need to weigh it.

grab some bondo and white spraypaint and you could have it looking professional!

Not sure about putting it over the tape actually. It might work, but then again it might start peeling up the bondo if it is sanded really light. Maybe ask some store employee wherever you find the Bondo for sale and see what they think. Would probably work ok, but you still might want to remove all the extra tape you can. Maybe remove all the tape and just use superglue or hot glue to hold it together for the bondo.
