True... But glow in the dark paint only looks dope in the dark. In the light it looks like ****. :lol:

Theres one thing that keeps me from painting my case and thats the satin section on the pads and then how it switches to the matted part. I like that... I think its dope.


No offense, but one would probably more likely be in a dark enviroment with there MPC, More so than being in the scorching sun, just to enjoy a hologriphic paint job. :shock:

True... But glow in the dark paint only looks dope in the dark. In the light it looks like crap. :lol:

word. i love the color of the og finish of the 2500. it looks so dope. i think if i got black pads and painted my data wheel flat black i'd be happy as a pig in shit.

none tooken...i can see my paint well in a lit room,,its when the lights go down the paint fades away,,,ay you can say what you want about "holographic" paint,,,but i didnt do it for you,,i did it for me...if i did a job for you,,you would be as happy as if forat did a job for you..im all about pride in my work so take it as you will,,it was actually an expieriment to paint the body while keeping the lettering on...not bad hey!!! for an average joe to come up with a clear paint that has color!!

the reason the paint had to be in the sun was for photos...i can see it rather well in my room..

and like i said..you get what you want and this is what i wanted.... if you dont like the holographic,then im assuming that isnt a color you would choose....but also i dont just use holograpic..

rooks turns from purple to teal

mine turns from green to gold

500 is red to blue to orange

and theres about 5 other flips also..

oh but while im at it,,,let me just say this....kustom getmoney(they did a good job,no doubt)..but read closely

for what he paid,,i'll buy the fvckin mpc,AND pimp it

Yeah I usually mess with my MPC at night in the dark but with a small lamp sitting right over the 2500.

It sets the mood... 8)

I got this idea from the MPC2500xl project thread...

I borrowed part of Moshine's logo and made a quick little design based on his idea, but with some modifications, then uploaded it to Styleflip's flash application just to see how it would look on my 2500.

I kind of like it. :mrgreen:

Wonder how good those styleflip mods really are.

Thanks. I think i'll end up doing it. I also want to get the black jog wheel and the blue numeric keypad

Anyone know where to find the blue keypad besides MPCStuff and VST? I know i'd seen it on VST before, but I can't find it now in either site.

hey are you looking for the blue keypad buttons?

i may have some extras lying around if you want them. i'll check tonight. all i would ask is shipping and the cost of the packing materials.

Yeah these mothaphuckas is taking to long...

I guess Im going to paint the Cursor myself like the rest of the buttons. I guess I wont have those whilte little arrows on it buts all good.

Thats the only thing thats been holding me back from posting my finished MPC.
