Did the "CE" mod Well, finally decided to do it and I got pics at every step.
Heres how it looked when I finshed sanding the first time:
Heres how it looked after i cleaned it with acetone and realized i should sand it better:
Then I cleaned with acetone and sprayed first coat of primer:
Then i sprayed two more coats:
Then I painted it with three coats at 30min. intervals and let it sit overnight. I removed the masking tape the next morning and this is what it looked like:
And here's one that I like:
Sorry 'bout the long post.

I like the way the flat black looks, arent the Collectors Editions' flat black also? I'm very satisfied considering I spent less than $20 dollars.
