hi

I'm customing my 2k5 with new parts, pads and painting but I wanted to know how to put back the labels after the paint job.

Do you know where I can get a transparent sticker with all the writings on it or if there is a better way to do so.

Thx

i personally think the best way to do it is to have it professionaly screen printed but there is this option here

Since the case on my 1k is chrome, I only want to use a portion of the skin, just around the pads, buttons, sliders and knobs, so that the chrome is the background. I think that this will be a very cool alternative to the style flipping solution.


please email a pic of your machine to [email protected] along with a more detailed description of what you want, and I'll mock up a proof for you.

BTW, for all the guys who painted their machines and can't figure out a good way to do the lettering, I can just print the lettering on a clear skin for you.

Pics of 2000 classic and 2000xl will be posted in their relative forums monday. Stay tuned!

looks cool. Thats alot like what I was gonna do with mine, until I decided I did want so much red. But its nice to see the actual finished result rather than just a photoshopped version.

And your record and volume knobs are EXACTLY how I have mine now.

I was hesitant to paint the knobs because of all the little grooves on the sides but when Sonseelye painted his knobs, I figured what the hell and painted my record knob red, rocked it with a black top, and rocked the previous red top on the volume knob instead. I've been going back and forth between the red top or silver top on the volume tho.

But yeah.. looks dope. what color are you doing the rest of the buttons?

Good Lookin on the comments Peoples. I appreciate that. I Did the work myself. First time doing something like this. When I saw the Materpieces on here I said I gotta do it. When the finished product is done i will post another pic for anyone who is interested. Gonna do the rest of the buttons R&B without going overboard. RED and BLACK have been my favorite colors forever.
Til next time.....Keep the Forum Hot.....Keep Bangin' Em Out.....
