So, i ended up **** up my case doing some dumb shit. I sprayed some fade clear instead of regular so that kind of **** my case up. So i'm looking to do a 1k classic for fun and order the black case (which i was planning on in the first place. Anyone who can give me help, that would be great. I think primer is actually the right color. I painted mine and it looks fine.

I started doing the logo's already.

I'm going to start photoshopping it shortly

So if i do go through with it and it comes out right, this is about what it looks like. I know the photoshop is kind of shitty. But this is my idea....

I definealy want to do it. My problem right now is that is that i don't have any thing to go of on the lettering. I can't use my case and bring it in and i haven't found a template. I'd start right now but i don't know if i have to mask the letters regularly or reverse. I'm going to talk to a vinyl shop and see what's up. I have the 2k template so i may just make a bunch of tiny stincils for it.

Do you have just a scan of it? I would if i planed to do more than one but i don't. Thanks for the offer though. If you have a scan, it would help me so much. I didn't really want to repaint in the first place, my clear just attacked my case. I can do this through a vinyl shop and just get it done once.

why would u need a screen ???


let me ask this :?: do you guys think bluebox was free to make? no ,that's why the owner ask for donations and I think that's to generous, which I gave a nice donation because of he's time and money. the Same for MPC3000's MPC editor which cost $29.00 bucs. Why is that you guys want something free all the time. Do you know what it takes to invest in these tools, All I here is, give, give, give me info for free. you can make stickers from a template that's not really accurate.But that's you. I've Invested time and money in these screens (2000XL and 1k) to help you guys put the Professional Lettering back on when you repaint. But I didn't ,and don't expect to have these screens made that cost me and send out for free. I think i've given enough Info for you to have one made,some of you sound like my Lazy 18yr old Son who don't won't to work,but he eat's ,sleep,etc,and says Daddy I need a car! Are You Crazy. :lol:

The sides...My photoshop was just messing up. They would probably be either the same off white or satin black. It might look to monotone if they were off white and i don't think grey would look good.
