Nice! wood panels. Those will look killer once stained and a wood card reader cover would really complete the look. If anyone starts producing nice looking panels count me in on an order. My vote would be for walnut or rosewood the more figure the better.

the "red wood" because of sentiment to 1k "toyish" colours of v1

now just paint your mpc grey and it's the dopes retro look you'd ever had.. omg !

2 weeks ago i painted the side panels dark-blue.. also looks better.. though i screwed up one of the panels, i sprayed the paint too thick on it.. too bad.. i want these wooden stuff!
