Lol thanks. That was with crappy cell phone. About to do some professional pics soon

I built my computer in 2005. The monitor I am using is a 2007 HP 17" square screen with a contrast ratio of 500:1 and the pixel pitch is 0.264mm. Short of a sketch with a Crayola, its gonna look the same on my end no matter what. LOL

Well, at least you computer works! I seem to go thru a laptop every few months. I have to use my Damn phone 90% of the time

Looks sick...

...minus that "diffuser" in the back WTF?

Thanks, and yeah it's not really a "diffuser" it's something I made to cover the cutouts where my exhaust tip used to be.

This is what it looks like from the back:

These pictures show the progression of when I made it.
Trim pulled off:

Taped up and support in place:

Outside of "mold":

Foam LOL:

Shaping:

Finding the center line:

Layout for shaping:

More shaping:

On my ghetto-licious layout table for even more shaping:

Aluminum bars for shape and protection:

Fiberglass:

Checking fitment before painting:

Maybe not the most elegant solution but this was my first attempt at doing anything like this so I'm happy with how it turned out.
