Changing White Burner to Black

[CrazyAL]

I just picked up a good deal on a CD Burner, but it has a white front. Unfortunately, my other components are all Black. My wife is already gripping about the white front on the Burner not matching the DVD Drive. Is there any way to order a black front, or is there a way to dye it black? (Without it looking all ghetto). Thanks in advance for any help...

People swear by Vinyl Dye. GideonTech has a guide/faq about it. I personally spray painted my drives because I couldn't find Vinyl dye local and was growing impatient. I've found with spray painting, the best thing to do is sand it down all the way, then spraying maybe 2 coats. It depends on your case, I have a pretty shiny black case so I wanted it very glossy...

I used automotive paint for mine. You could also try model car spray paint. Far superior to regular spray paint.
