CD-ROM faceplate

Sadclown · 02-23-2002, 12:54 AM

Anybody know where I can find a black faceplate for a cd-rom?

My whole case is done in black, and (call me silly) it would drive me carzy to have a white drive staring out at me from a black case.

The easiest solution would be to take the faceplate off of the cd-rom and paint it. Unless you could find something but I have never seen anyone offer already colored faceplates.

I foudn a place that sold replacement faceplates awhile back and (doh!) forgot to bookmark it. Haven't been able to find it since.

Painting the existing faceplate my work. Hmmm...you think regular spray paint would do the trick, or would I need something else?

Go to an auto parts store. They will have special paint for use on plastics. You should also use a clear on top of the paint.
