Power coating cost's a lot though....
I think I'll put the duck tape on everything and then decide if I like it or not.

Yep, it is a little spendy!!! For custom powder coat, it would be somewhere in the area of $70.00.

I got a quote from my local powdercoat shop that it would only be like $25 to do the exterior of a Lian Li mid-tower aluminum case. That was just an estimate though, no work has actually been done... yet... :dontknow:

hhmmm... $25-50 isn't that bad.

I've decided to Paint the case instead of duct tape.
What shade of black do ya'll think I should paint the outside of the case?
And what shade of black should I paint the inside of the case?

Let me knows!

BTW, a guy another forum suggested that I name the project "Nemesis".
I thought that's an awesome name, but what do you guys think?
I could call it "Black:Nemesis" or something, or of course just "nemesis"....
I still like the "blank.box", but I want your preference HL.

Blank.box is a good name. I would get some matte back semi-gloss paint. Not so shiny it's like a mirror, but it still reflects some light.
