    Is there a company like Colorware in the UK that does custom cases/ shell modifications to laptops ?

    Shipping to America not really an option...

    All they really do is powder coating. You can strip your own laptop and have it coated. Its just a pain to clean the screw holes back out.

    Why don't ya'll get together and start a company doing lappys.I do powder coating and I refuse to do computer parts.Most of my powder cure at 380*F at anywhere between 10 and 60 minutes.I just don't trust PC parts to hold up.
