My Wii is now blingin'. Man, what a pain in the arse it was too. Nothing fit quite right and I have two screws left over that became spare parts when I couldn't remember where I took them out from. :rofl

There are better pics on their site (http://www.xcmlive.com/cgi-bin/xcmlive/engine.pl?function=viewid&id=RKS00093&cat=WII-TUNING). It's hard to get the right exposure in the dark on my camera.
noice!!!! as i stare at my black wii full of jealousy and bitterness :( Yeah I know about the install. i took my time. about 2 hours. had to draw diagrams on paper and then place the screws on them so i would know which ones went where when putting it back. their marketing ad says that even kids can do it. unless you are a very patient/smart 10 year old, i don't think this job is for them. the biggest pain for me was at the end in putting back that big heatsink shrowd. anyway, nice job :) can't wait for resident evil 4 wii edition coming next month.
they should start a show just for us geeks. pimp my console or pimp my pc :D

Also, the cheap tiny philips screwdriver they include with the case sucks. I had no problem with the heatsink shroud, as my case comes with a replacement clear one. I had the biggest problem with the front cover. I had to end up using the white buttons because the clear blue buttons they included weren't quite molded correctly and the eject button jammed on when I put it back together. Also, that little tiny nut that sits in the slot in the case (for the battery holder tray) fell out when I was litterally putting the last screw into the case and I had to take the whole damn thing apart again to get the loose nut out of the case and put it back where it was supposed to go. :banghead:
