looking nice and clean so far!

Keep up the good work, and have fun. ;)
 
Those fan grills are my favourite fan grills ever made. I wouldn't consider using anything else, maybe a lighted counter-strike one but I love those ones :)

Nice job, can't wait to see it finished.
 
ya i am going for the hardcore look so wire was the only way to go.

and i hope i can get it done bye this monday thats if i can get the paint.
 
Just ignore them. Now to get back on topic, those fan grills look good. Does the CB antenna actually do anything?

why does evry one like the fan grill's there not that big of a deal? and no the cb is just for show.
 
Okay guys, PM each other if you want to discuss history or whatever, this is a mod thread :)

I also like the fan grills. I just can't stand these new ones with weird patterns - I love the look of a nice plain round grill like those. Lots of airflow and a clean look that's not ricey at all.
 
first just to get this out of the way plz all drop south ok you don't like it good for you and i have like 3 or 4 black buddies thay help me and i help them ok god.

now with the grills ya i can't stand the laser cut ones just don't look right and thay do stop a ot of air flow so ya wire was the only way to go.

ps,later today i well put some pics of the paint'ed top and i sanded the (xbox) off the dvd cover looks a lot cleaner now.
 
Ok guys, stay on topic or I will have to bring out the chainsaw again.


If you want to discuss South vs North please sign up for General Mayhem and rip each others throats out in the SoapBox. The worklog section is not the right place for that.
 
thank you thank you and the hole chainsaw thing just went over my head i don't get it :confused:

Absolutely spectacular! I had endeavored XBOX modding quite a while ago, unfortunately-my XBOX Live subscription had been subject to detention.

ya i here you btw thanks i like it to :D
 
Hello, nice mod going there, man! I like those fan grills, they make your box look "cleaner", I hope you understand what I mean...

Are you planning to put dust filters in there, or dust is not something to be afraid of?

Sorry about my terrible english, and keep up the good work!
 
dust really is not a big deal all i well have to do is clean it 1 time a month

and the other guy why don't you like the grills to plane i like them so to bad
 
om i'm ban from there so i can't look :D . well to say i found 1 more fan grill to go with the dvd grill so i'm going to put it on the right side. and some work on the front but i well show you that later lol :cool:

..dunno.. they look alrite with steel/ alu but ugly with plastic..
 
lets see.. chop off the top of the rom, have a hole right over it with no filter.

If that doesnt spell "why is my xbox not reading discs" in a few months i dont know what does.

Creative, to say the least, but id advise a plexi window and not an open hole over the rom :)
 
i dont like it...nothing special looks too plain for my taste..doesnt stand out the green logo acuattly looked better now...if u had put something glowing in the middle or something like that it would give it more taste..my opinion
 
first guys if it f's up my dvd thats my prob ok. and its not done get that to go in your minds plz. now the none of the lights are in it and i'm thinking aboat getting more red leds.
 
Personally, I like plain. Mod looks good, although I would have to agree with the previous post about plexi over the dvd-rom hole. I think that would look better, maybe with a white LED to show it off or something. But, that's just my $0.02 and do whatever the hell makes you happy. :)

ok read man read and no no no no plexi

sorry thanks and for all the other people flaming is harder then well not flaming lol
 
just ignore the haters, they're probably ps2 fan boys anyways :)

interested to see the final project, clean work so far.
 
Wow. I don't think I've ever see such negative feedback here. Looks good so far man, keep it up.

ya lol i love my ps2 ya plz guys if you got a prob i really would like if you didn't flame thanks.

ps,i'm going to put a plexi window over the drive ok.
 
Sorry, but I think this looks terrible. Really poor paint job and illogical holes.

I don't like putting people's work down, but this is anything but "clean".
 
well i like the paint looks just like i wanted it to. and like i have sed before ITS NOT DONE!!!!!!!!!!!
