Guide to opening/dyeing GP32

[jjthe2]

For all you case-modders out there. I made up a quick guide to taking apart your GP32, with some tips for dyeing, and my results.

Here it is

Let me know about errors or if I left anything out. Obviously most of you don't want to risk it, but I know some of you out there do.

Good guide!

Too bad I was working for exactly the same type of article (different on other aspects though) for GP32:zine, I hope you don't mind I will bring it after all?

Like your guide mentioned, I won't risk it, jjthe2. But FWIW, yours turned out pretty damned sweet!

The picture of the blue looks better than the 1's u posted when u dyed it. It looks ALOT better in the full picture altho the edges of the gp32 look a bit worn is that cuse of your hands or is that a dye problem?

Other wise it looks great i like it but i liked the first light blue 1 u did 2

I fixed the speaker hole thing from last time. It's hard to take a picture to show exactly the result. The color overall is very consistent, the "light patches" are really where the texture gets a little smoother. So at distance in soft light it looks perfect, but with a closer look you can see the smoothness/roughness. It doesn't seem to wear off at all.

Waaaah! Freaky....

I was just looking at the guide and I noticed Gollum from Lord of the rings poking his tongue out reflected in your GP32 screen here....

Spooky!

EDIT: or is it Iron Maiden's macot Eddie?
